Two problems I find frequently

Is there any reason why constantly you can be in spectator (gaining queue points) and then get kicked to boss? Is there going to be a fix for this? some of our pubbers quickly step out and think it is ok if they are in spec they wont be boss but however they do then they randomly miss their turn.

It seems if u click spectator and a class after a certain number of people have been killed you can randomly spawn half way through a round. Is this a bug? has anyone else found it, i stumbled upon it randomly then after one of our junior members said about it as they have noticed it also. I also see some other people on our server seem to know about it cause they respawn a few times each round only for me to detect them.

It's a thing I've noticed in the past already, here's how to fix it:
In the source code, find

PHP Code:

stock FindNextHale(bool:array[]) 


Then replace

PHP Code:

if (IsValidClient(i) && GetClientTeam(i) != _:TFTeam_Unassigned) 


with

PHP Code:

if (IsValidClient(i) && GetClientTeam(i) != _:TFTeam_Unassigned && GetClientTeam(i) != _:TFTeam_Spectator) 


Compile it and put it in the "plugins" folder and you should be fine.

Never happened to me

What is pretty known is:

You join the game and are in spectator (you have not choosen a class) if the round starts then and your still spec, you can choose a class. Choose that class *again* and you will join the game hallfway. This has always been in there.

We just missed one year anniversary of this thread.

Bahhh I should have made the new thread on the anniversary, but oh well.

Oh something *very* important I need to know: does anyone crash on arena_sawmill? I'm observing something where the server *always* goes down on arena_sawmill. However, this occurs regardless of what plugins are loaded, so I doubt it's VSH (I removed SourceMod/MetaMod completely and it still locked up on sawmill).

[napalm00]

I'm running a customized version but no, didn't get any crashes on sawmill or any other map at all.

[snelvuur]

running sawmill in the rotation, doesn't crash.

[FlaminSarge]

Found the issue, there was a file 'arena_sawmill_l_0.lmp', deleted it stopped the lockup. Strange. If your server locks up/crashes on a particular map, see if there's a .lmp file for that map, back up that file then delete it.
