TF2 mp_waitingforplayers mode never ends!
#1
Hi there,

I've set up a TF2 server on my dedicated Linux box. The problem is the "Waiting for players" mode never ends. On some maps, this just means it's a continuous free-for-all, and on other maps the teams can't even get to each other.

The mp_waitingforplayers_cancel and mp_waitingforplayers_restart cvars have no effect at all when set in the server.cfg. And when I set mp_waitingforplayers_cancel to 1 manually in-game, nothing happens.

Really, I don't want it to wait for players at all. I want even just one or two people to be able to play a full game if they want.

Anyway here's my server.cfg

Code:
hostname "[GoochAssassins] Experimental TF2 Server"
rcon_password "g0o0tcH!TF2." //Set's remote control password
sv_password "" // Password protects server

sv_rcon_banpenalty 10 //Number of minutes to ban users who fail rcon authentication

here are the cvars you should remove:
Quote:mp_clan_ready_signal "go" //Text that team leader from each team must speak for the match to begin
mp_clan_readyrestart 1 //If non-zero, game will restart once someone from each team gives the ready signal
mp_enableroundwaittime 1 //Enable timers to wait between rounds.
mp_waitingforplayers_cancel 1
mp_waitingforplayers_restart 0
besides that you should put "sv_alltalk" to 0 so each time will talk to themselfs and not to the other team.

Ok thanks, I will try removing those. But we like to keep alltalk on... it's just kind of tradition.

Hey thanks a lot, taking out those commands worked!

I guess the game was waiting for the "go" signal or something.
