Hi guys!
I've got a question refering your reserved slots.
I think it's possible to hide them.
I am asking because I have a lot of timeouts in the last week and it's awful to try to connect and it says: reserved slot.
I can't autoretry because he shows 22/24.
If you need help to configure plz ask.
My clan has a css server and we have some guys who know which commands are needed.
Do you use SourceMod for you server?
Or something else?
Greets,
Ringel

We use Beetlesmod, and up until recently the reserved slot function has not worked very well.
We now have two reserved slots, which will allow clan members onto our server. Up to 22 slots can be used by public or clan members. The final two slots will be held for clan members to get on when the server is busy.
Sorry, but its the luck of the draw I'm afraid (for public players at least).

I see that there is no good reserverd-tool for beetlemod atm.
We work with SourceMod and worked with Mani.
There we have the possibility to hide the slots.
But maybe in the future they'll release a tool like that.

You can hide the slots in beetlesmod.....
setmaxvisible 1
So for 2 slots you would want:-
reservedslot 2
ReservedMode 0
setmaxvisible 1

Check the command isnt anywhere else.... the cfg files for beetlesmod do seem a bit here there and everywhere lol It might be set in one place but then unset in another |

One suggestion extra that I would make is that people do look for 24 man servers to join. So I would up your slots to 26 and hide 2 so it still appears as a 24 man server in the steam server lists |

Also not sure if the server hosts would be too thrilled about doing that. |

I don't think that'd really solve anything though, it just shifts the problem 2 slots up  |

I never really connect to anything other than 24 man as thats how valve designed it. You may lose the random non regulr traffic if your server shows as a 22 man One suggestion extra that I would make is that people do look for 24 man servers to join. So I would up your slots to 26 and hide 2 so it still appears as a 24 man server in the steam server lists Not sure how to increase to 26? It requires a config hack doesn't it? Server hosts should be able to do it Pretty sure Valve enabled support for up to 32 man (look at updates for fixes to 32 man server issues) |

Well, on my server thingie, a "maxplayers 26" awards you an automatic "increased_maxplayers" custom server tag, but aside from that, not much else...
Not really a hack all things considered.

Correct this would have put the server in the custom 'graveyard' tab. But valve got rid of this... so the tag is now only there for players to search on if they enter it |
