Player slots count in Nexgen

Post by Barbie »

NexgenServersettingsBasic.jpg
Can anyone tell why the combination

Code: Select all

playerSlots=20
vipSlots=2
adminSlots=4
spectatorSlots=6
does not work? playerSlots is reset after every match to 16. And it does not matter if I change it with the GUI or in the INI file.

Code: Select all

	// Update player slots if set to variable.
	if (variablePlayerSlots) {
		playerSlots = level.game.maxPlayers;
	}
Again INI write-protected?

Oh, that's what "Variable slots" is for. I thought that the slots maximum would be adjusted according to the player count. :wth:

UnrealTournament.ini says:

Code: Select all

[Engine.GameInfo]
MaxSpectators=2
MaxPlayers=32

Haha, my first thought - no, I edited the INI file (as the same user the UT server is running with) and could save it without problems.

i have a look on readme of nexgen this option has been added since Nexgen1.09

Code: Select all

  Added: Option to use variable player slots (admin and vip slots will be disabled).
Barbie do you use a mapvote with multiple slots settings `? in this case you can't use vip and admin slot if variable players slots is enable.

if your server use only the Monsterhuntgamtyte you can desable variable players slots and nexgen will take the settings on your unrealtournament.ini

Code: Select all

 MaxSpectators=2
MaxPlayers=16
and you can use vip and admin slots in this case,

Another thinsg:

if you rented your server you musn't not use more slot that your server have.
playerSlots=20
vipSlots=2
adminSlots=4
spectatorSlots=6
here you have 20+2+4+6 = 32 slots

i hope that will help you

Whow, MapVote controls the allowed amount of players? What setting is that?

Code: Select all

 variablePlayerSlots=False  


or your VIP an admin slot will not work because Variable players slots will disable it.
