About get_players ConnorMcLeod , I have experience a lot of false returns .. So ( In my PLugin ) i had to remove all get_players with get_maxplayers with loop... (never bugged after that)
I have read a lot that get_players is efficient but it returns false results
The interesting part is this once it bugs ( returns false results ) it doesnt work till we dont restart server, map restart also doesnt works.
I have only checked get_players with team check , maybe thats what it bugs it ?
Can the reason be multimods ? Running different mods in a server ...
