Congrats server is 20/20

**solarity** · 01-28-2013, 08:10 PM

Either things are going really well with supporting members or the reserved system is not functioning at this particular moment. I have been unable to get into the server for the past 7 minutes. I think we also went up a rank on game Tracker.

We actually went up by TWO points on gametracker!

The server has been been acting very odd lately. Some things I have noticed:

sv_who works only sometimes - I used it when the server was 20/20 to kick an afk, but I only received SMs in the sv_who - also does not display the correct
the player limit does not work, 20/20 players when only 4 or 5 were SMs and SMs could not join ^ Solarity
sv_kick has limited usability if we don't know the player id number which is assigned who joins the server first. Easier to use ID number if it was displayed. Since I am always first to join server on a new mapload I can type sv_kick 1 and it always kicks me. If sv_who were to return player IDs based upon join order, sv_kick could be more useful.
massive kicks for no reason - usually upwards of 5 players at once - playing 10 v 9 earlier then all of a sudden 8 v 5

Playing right now, so rough list.

Yeah it booted a good portion of the alien team, almost enough to make the marines win by default. The aliens came back in win surprisingly.

Though I am sad to say it wasn't that many SM's on so I guess it was bugged =(

Yeah it was down when I tried to check last so I was going by what I saw yesterday or this morning. We are 15 overall and 9th in the US

Guys, use sv_status to pull the UID for the player you want to kick. Works every time.

Fixed that to reflect what the server was doing earlier.

sv_who only displays admins, supporting members, and primer signers. It will not show ? players. As Ferris said, use sv_status.

Something is messed up with the server. It sometimes fills to 20 slots and then randomly will kick about 1/2 the server which ends the round. Other times it will behave normally with a cap at 16.

Yep, this was quite annoying yesterday.

I need as much information about this as people can report. Ideally, someone can offer steps to reproduce.

**CingularDuality** · 02-02-2013, 01:57 AM

Sorry, I hadn't played again until this evening and didn't see it happen. Perhaps you fixed it already?

**Boogalo** · 02-02-2013, 02:53 PM

We did some testing on the 31st and I believe it was fixed then.

**Wyzcrak** · 02-02-2013, 03:45 PM

I discovered one among us who had a non-numeric value in his forum profile's NS2ID field, and I think that was causing the problem.

Please do continue to report any problems you see.

It's quite common for server browsers to report 20/20 while we're seeing 16/20 on our scoreboards. This means lots of people are in the process of connecting.
