Locked server bug

Post by =MeRk= BluFFeR »

Hi Gents

There is a bug that if you lock the server,password it to run say events. The server will not allow more than 30 players on the server. Then if they disconnect they cannot rejoin the server so the numbers of players on the server start to dwindle.

Apparently if you remove the reserve slots it could fix the issue, but its quite hard to get the server full using a password unless its a event. Then if it fails your events pretty screwed.
Also it defeats the object of people paying for res slots then cant get onto your server because they were removed.

Think this is one to look into fellas

Regards and thankyou

If recall correctly this bug has been in PR since the beginning, isn't it a problem with BF2?

TBH never had a problem passwording the server pre 1.0 holding events,and getting the full amount of players on the server to play.
It must be in the 1.0 release

P.S I have also tried 2 different servers/setups both with the same problem.

This bug is around for a long time now and i think it is not PR but bf2 related. Not every sever seems to get it when they use password+reserved slots, but some do. Best way to circumvent the problem is to not use default reserved slot system and do your own with an admin script (like TG had it).
