Oh ok. I was confused there for a sec. It's just the last data sent to the client before the server crashed. That makes sense.

Are you able to recreate the crash with only bots (without any plugin to protect against the crash)? I just tested both objective score and kills. I had 11300 for my score. Then, I got one bot to have 367 kills. Nothing happened, everything kept going like normal.

Yes, I've been able to recreate the crash with only bots.

What OS did you test it on ?

I think that this crash can be delayed sometime. It mostly happens right as the player gets 256 kills, but once in a while it waits a few more kills before the server crashes.

[EDIT] another strange thing, is when I first tested this version, when I had 255 255 & 255, and got either a kill or a death, it reset both kills and deaths. Now it only resets either a kill or a death whenever I go over 256 in that category.

I found out something. Whenever I have 255,255 & 255 and I'm the first player to either kill, be killed or cap an objective, the server always crashes instantly.

If there is at least 1 kill, 1 death, or one objective capped and I get 256 of any of those, the plugin resets only whatever I got 256 of.

Did you guys die over the holiday or what ?

I give up, i'm just going to run mp_timelimit low enough to prevent anyone from getting 256, fuck this bug.

I haven't tested anything yet, need to install amxx on dod hlds, play the game a bit etc...

What about using :

That version works. it resets both humans & bots when they get 256 of anything, but the message to the player is in chat and doesn't stay long enough.

It would be best if it were like the original plugin. White text, centered in the lower part of the players screen.

[edit]Connor, what's your paypal info.
