Lantz, I am sure at one point I hae asked you this before but can we get an addition to the ptb_saychat cvar that only shows chat messages and not HUD?

Thanks

I tried this in ptb.cfg

 
ptb_saychat 1
// messages
amx_ptb tellwtj      on  // tell about wtj tries
amx_ptb announce     on // announce team status at beginning of round
amx_ptb sayok        on // announce team status, if teams are alright
amx_ptb typesay      off // use HUD messages

Then i saw all chatmessages and not any hud messages

Since I love the way this works so much I wanted to implement it on my dm server, although it goes by rounds most of the time.

I think the players would be confused if you change their teams randomly.
I have FFA on my CSDM server without PTB and I think that is better as the team does not matter.
Maybe you could try and code it yourself as I belive you can.
You could just change try and change what triggers the function public round_end()

Alright, ill see what I can do
Thank you for the response

[mo0n]

on this part of the cfg file:


// messages (good to have on when debugging if you use statsx dont have them on)
amx_ptb tellwtj on // tell about wtj tries
amx_ptb announce on // announce team status at beginning of round
amx_ptb sayok on // announce team status, if teams are alright
amx_ptb typesay on // use HUD messages


what do you mean by debugging? can i still have statsx plugin on if i turn these messages on? because i want to use both and i want to make sure i can

[lantz69]

Yes you can have statx on, but some stats or miscstats might overwrite the PTB huds.

I assume you have a 16player server
Then these settings are good (as you already have)

 
amx_ptb maxsize 9 // maximum team size per team
amx_ptb maxdiff 2 // maximum team size difference

You could also try

 
amx_ptb maxsize 10 // maximum team size per team
amx_ptb maxdiff 4 // maximum team size difference

Then it can be 10 vs 6 but maybe a little extreme

The scores you show above can also depend on what kind of maps is played and if there is a really good player in the other team(maybe even immune)
To many immune players make PTB suffer in its work of balancing the team.
Often also some players disconnect when they are in the losing team.

So my questions to you are:
What maps are the scores from?
How many maxplayers does your server have?
How many immune player do you have?

[ldoom777]

Thanks for the help Lantz69,

What maps are the scores from? de_inferno, de_dust2 & de_nuke
How many maxplayers does your server have? 16 man
How many immune player do you have? 2
