Cyborgmatt, thanks.

The function to set the team of a CDotaPlayer (CBaseEntity) is in vtable index 96. The signature is:

bool CDotaPlayer::SetTeam( int team );

Returns true if it could logically assign the player to the team.

Defaults to 0 DOTA_TEAM_NONE
DOTA_TEAM_SPECTATOR = 1
DOTA_TEAM_RADIANT = 2
DOTA_TEAM_DIRE = 3

Also, don't forget that the "spectate game" feature of the Dota client uses HLTV, not DOTA_TEAM_SPECTATOR.

That is the equivalent of calling SourceMod's ChangeClientTeam native.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I did some searching and was curious how to publicly open my server to other people?

I have all the ports forwarded correctly, and I'm able to connect to my server via Lan IP and localhost, but I'm curious if theres any server files I need to edit in order to let other people join my games?

+ip or -ip with my public ip used gives me a socket error and I'm unable to connect.

I realize this is a rudimentary networking basics question, but it's been awhile since I've played around with srcds files and I wasn't sure.

If your ports are correctly forwarded and your firewall isn't blocking connections to your server, your clients should be able to connect through your public IP. Be sure to set up your server files to host off your private IP (usually 192.168.X.Y) and your router should identify incoming connections for the port and forward it to your private IP and to the server.

SRCDS hosting questions not specific to Dota are probably better left to the Source Servers (SRCDS) forum.

Does anyone know when the server knows when a client can accept CUserMsg_SayText2? ClientPutInServer is too early and doesn't show up in the chat box, but the client accepts it fine when a console command is used later.

If similar to other games, you might try listening for the player_spawn event, or worst case, just use a one-off timer in OnClientPutInServer although that's unreliable due to load times.
