Will this work? reserved slots

(BigBiker05) #1

Am I tripping or will this might work?

si_maxPlayers “18”
si_maxPlayersHuman “18”
si_maxTeamSize “8”
si_privateClients “2”
g_privatePassword “*****”

//Reserved Slots
si_privateClients “x” // Equal the number fo slots you want reserved
g_privatePassword “password” //Equals your selected ‘password’

To use this feature use Direct Connect , enter the IP addy, port #, and your password.

Boom - Winning!

it works even if you set maxPlayers to 16, the server will still allow 16 people to join, and will kick someone when somebody with the password joins. It just shows 14/16 on the server browsers and everything else, but there actually can be 16 people on it without reserved slots taken.

That is how I had it set to last night. The server would fill up to 14 people but no more. I even counted in server the players int he scorebox and it was 14. The only time it would get higher is if I left then rejoined via direct connect usingt he reserved slot.

hmm, I had mine set and it was actually filling up to 16, I just had to go ingame to see it, everything else always showed 14/16.

You had it exactly how I had it in OP except 16 instead of 18?

Nevermind, today it has decided to only run at 14 players, even when reserved slots are used and maxplayers at 16, so disregard me.

The annoying thing is I removed reserved slots completely and it STILL is only allowing 14 players on.

That really sucks. Well I just looked over me server logs for the day and it seems with my configs in the OP that it never got over 14 players. Removing the reserved slot command from my configs and going back to 16 max, 8 per team.
