Hello,

I need help with one weird bug in my Versus server. When play versus bots, until other friends or players join (as infected team), sometimes survivor bot team not spawn, and map is empty. Picture attached to see how shift+tab describe teams.



So problem may be solved if one player reconnect and join survivors instantly, all 6 survivors poop out map.
I was try remove all custom maps, search and remove old left4downtown files after replace them with Hooks, not help. I update superversus plugin, but is not compatible with my old readyup.smx, and replacing readyup.smx with L4Dready.smx not offer me satisfied solution because of missing force start module inside.

A little info about servers:
- i run 3 servers in small mini Pc assrock beebox (similar to intel NUC), low power consumption
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
-2 Coop server, 1 Versus server (6 vs 6)
-sourcemod, metamod, stripper, L4DtoolZ, sourcebans++, HlstatX

Info about checkpoint when that issue with bots disappear start happening:
In my mini Pc hard drive crash, so i need reconfigure all servers again and install Ubuntu. My backup was old 2 years and in meantime i was lot of edit servers because of L4D2 game update so only difference may be i run now new version of sourcemod compare to old server where all was work correct.
Any information or clue is welcome, and if i miss add some more info, please correct me and i will provide.

Thank you in advance,

Hey Spirit_12, thank you for reply, i cant remove l4d_superversus.smx, because that plugin give versus mod, i was try use other version same plugin, and with that other problem gone, but generated other problem: readyup.smx work on half, like no waiting period, when 1st player connect in server after map transition, doors of saferooom is opened, and survivor bots before takeover player are half damaged and attacked outside. So i was try replace readyup.smx with L4d_ready.smx but that plugin dont have force start, soif in server are players who not know read to type in chat !ready, everyone may be frozen long period and people will leave.
Any other suggestion? Maybe i may revert sourcemod version to lower i remember was work in old configuration of server?
What do you think about that idea?

Other small info: in server.cfg i hold this:
sv_gametypes "versus"
sm_cvar mp_gamemode "versus"
sv_steamgroup_exclusive 0
sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0
sv_maxplayers 12
sv_force_unreserved 0

Solved: it was the version l4dtoolz_mm.so.
In time when last stand update broke l4dtoolz, and someone fix it, my friend was create other version where was reduced slots to 16, and point for that was fix crash on map3 custom map Dniepr. That version works great on my 2 coop servers with 10 slot, but do that missing entities bug on versus server. After edit l4dtoolz_mm.so to 31, all works like charm, thanks to my friend Dbf!
