I have some problems running my server.

(egghead) #1

I am running a 5v5 server, or at least im trying to. here is my config:

applyServerConfig Advanced
seta si_rules sdGameRulesObjective
seta net_serverRemoteConsolePassword "x"
seta net_allowServerHijacking 0

seta si_name "x"
seta si_adminName "x"
seta si_motd_1 "x"
seta si_website "x"

seta si_onlineMode 3
seta si_playmode 2
seta si_teamDamage 1
seta g_mapRotationFixed "mp/aquarium,mp/ccity,mp/reactor,mp/refuel,mp/resort,mp/sectow,mp/shipyard,mp/terminal"
seta g_password "x"
seta g_privatePassword "x"
seta si_privateClients 2
seta si_needpass 1
seta si_rankRestricted 0
seta si_maxPlayers 16
seta si_maxTeamSize 5
seta si_maxPlayersHuman 16
seta si_teamForceBalance 1
seta si_readyPercent 50
seta si_globalVoipEnabled 0
seta si_teamVoipEnabled 0

bot_enable 1
bot_minclients 4

spawnServer mp/ccity

Ok, here are the problems i encountered:

  1. There is no autoexec.cfg, no server.cfg and no <mapname>.cfg to set options at certain times, or at least i haven’t found a location where to put them. for now i just can +exec my config via a parameter when i start the exe.
  2. net_allowServerHijacking is set 0 and the server console confirms the state 0 but people still hijack my server
  3. In combination of 1 and 2 when people leave the hijacked server it starts in a campaign mode and not in my config.
  4. Since the last server update (May 23) the state in the server is “Network service is initialized” instead of “Online” but people still can connect to it.

net_allowServerHijacking 0

should be

net_ServerallowHijacking 0

There is no autoexec.cfg because you need to create it, not that it is needed for a server. The server.cfg’s are located inside the base folder and contain only a few cvars as most are set from the applyServerConfig cvar, which is supposed to be read after si_rules. You can however utilize a custom.cfg and run any cvars you want , but SD is recommending that you use the stock .cfg’s.

The map file is in the base folder as well, although most server owners are just adding a line of code to the server.cfg’s to run the map cycle or map vote.(one or the other not both)

As stated by humbug net_serverAllowHijacking 0 is the correct cvar.
