Server Maxplayers at 18?

Post by chris686 »

My clan's server was just recently upgraded to the Hyperaccelerated. It's a 21 (20 + 1 recommendation slot) slot server.

After the upgrade, it appears that the maxplayers is set to 18.
How can I fix this? I thought the command was sv_maxplayers, but that hasn't worked, unless there is just something added to the end of one of the config files that overwrites what I put into the autoexec.cfg.

On thing I have noticed is that when I'm looking at the server usage tab, the 'Daily' and 'Weekly' graphs all say "Current Maxplayers 21" while the Monthly says "Current Maxplayers 18."

You probably have sv_visiblemaxplayers set to 18 in one of your configs which makes it appear to be a 18 slot server, but its really 21 slots.

No, that's set at the right amount.

I wasn't there to witness it, but someone told me that they thought there was a cap of 17... I looked at the graph for the day and it peaked at 18.

I may have fixed the problem, but I have no real way of testing it until tomorrow. Too late right now.

Some genius (Not naming any names) had the reserve slots set to five when they updated mani.

I wonder why I don't do it all myself :lol:
