Ooog October 17, 2011 Share Ooog Member October 17, 2011 (edited) I noticed that the server crashes when people who were in spectate do a !jointeam on map changes. By map change I mean same map but next area when everyone is loading up. It only happens when the server is full and they are trying to get a spot. How do I know? Cause 3 times now I tried to nab a spot in a full game on map change when I was waiting in spec and each time it crashed the server immediately after I typed !jointeam. Seeing this I'll stop trying to squeeze in but thought I should inform you in case there was anything that could be done about it. Would it be acceptable to eliminate the spec spots over 20 and/or increase reserve slots? Just a thought, can't say I know much about servers...

samurai nightling October 17, 2011 Share samurai nightling Member October 17, 2011 Maybe Jackie can look into/do something. If we eliminate the spec spots, no one could spec at all, including admins, which means if we need to get in the server for any reason, we'd have to kick someone to get in. The spec spots have always caused some problems since day 1 i feel, but they've gotten a lot better over time, and a crash occasionally doesn't bug me too much.

Madvillain October 17, 2011 Share Madvillain Member October 17, 2011 Hopefully its something that can get fixed by a restart and isn't a major issue. Losing the spec spots would make life tougher to join and do admin related work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooog October 17, 2011 Author Share Ooog Member October 17, 2011 I found another way around for myself that I would recommend others use. When the round ends just disconnect and reconnect. That way I get to snag a slow loaders spot without a crash. Though I must say it is a useful method of forcing a scramble on those horrible 2000 to 200 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooog October 18, 2011 Author Share Ooog Member October 18, 2011 (edited) no, i like spectating Indeed, now that spec slots are gone, so are reserved slots. Me and my big mouth. Also jammed the ability to force a scramble when teams were clearly unbalanced after a ppm scramble. Server would not scramble though mad tried. I would have thought ppm was good but this morn it scrambled a bunch of the regs on to one team and left a bunch of newer people trying to fend off a clearly superior team. I only cry about it cause I was being butt whupped Still, I do appreciate that you guys take the time to try out new stuff. I may rage, I may witch about stuff, but I say thank you for trying to make it better Edited October 18, 2011 by Ooog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samurai nightling October 18, 2011 Share samurai nightling Member October 18, 2011 (edited) Any changes that are made, can always be undone if they aren't helping really. Or if they dont work properly. Edited October 18, 2011 by samurai nightling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
