You're wrong in both cases. The player that currently connected (the one who triggered the OnClientPostAdminCheck) is not yet included in GetClientCount(false) - even if the definition of the parameter bool:inGameOnly=false sounds different. So I need to add 1 what also lead to "<" instead of "<="

Even with 1 reserved slot and 1 hidden slot set up, it is showing the server right (23/23) but when a player tried to enter the 23rd slot it lets them connect but them kicks them which is VERY FRUSTRATING! How can I stop this? So to reitterate, if the server is 22/23 and someone connects it will kick them even tho I have it set to only 1 reserved slot!

Well, the change I mentioned works for me. Of course, my SourceMod build (1649) is two weeks old, so I'll try upgrading to the latest build later tonight or tomorrow morning and let you know if my change is still required.

Ok here's the main problem:

sm_hreserved_drop_method 0

Setting this to zero DOESN'T work, it still drops players attempting to connect.


Like there is something seriously wrong here. I don't want to swich back to Beetlesmod because SM is better quality overall, but these reserved slots aren't working correctly. Is there no way to make it so that players can't connect and then get kicked? Please help me out I've been working on getting this issue resolved for days.

well. i am using the same version of sourcemod and everything is fine for me. with your changes the plugin should never have worked correctly for anyone using only one reserved slot.

I am quiete unsure what you want to tell me.

if you set the drop method to 0, and a player witout reserved slot access tries to connect, he is kicked, yes. of course he is, otherwise the plugin would be useless. but if a player with reserved slot access connects, no other player is kicked. instead the reserved slot is blocked until a player leaves on his own. thats the intention of this option.

Do you think that's my problem? I have 4 public slots, out of 6 slots total. So that's 2 implicit reserved slots.

I guess my point is that when my server has 3/4, the plugin writes to the console that 4/4 public slots are in use. This is incorrect.

sv_visiblemaxplayers 4
sm_hreserved_drop_method 0
sm_hreserved_redirect_target 127.0.0.1:27015

[Kengh]

If drop method is 0, according to the instructions, shouldn't it never drop anybody? Not dropping players is what I want.

I want it to work like this:

2 Reserved Slots out of 24 total slots

Server is 22/22 (2 hidden) only RS can access the last 2 slots, but when a RS joins noone gets kicked, the server just temporarily moves to 23/22 until someone leaves. This is what a I want, and its possible under Beetlesmod, and Mani's, there has got to be a way to get it to work with Sourcemod!

This should happen when you use sm_hreserved_drop_method 0

edit:

checked that out.

Jules is not kicked if I changed the setting. The game browser shows 2/1 players.

I disconnected Jules on my own then and tried to reconnect while red! was still connected (1/1):

Client "Jules" connected (192.168.1.20:27005).
[hreserved_slots] no slot amount defined, using 14 hidden slots as reserved.
[hreserved_slots] no free public slots

Dropped Jules from server (This slot is reserved for admins)

And Jules was not able to reconnect. Thats it. Everything okay for me.
