GunGame5.1 issue with team switch

[dovehunter]

hey fellers,

First i would also like to thank you all for all of your hard work that you have done to help people and keep gungame running as best as possible ! I have only a couple of questions to ask and would greatly appriciate it if you could direct me in the right direction,
1. When I load gungame5.1 everything runs fairly smoothly but I noticed that if anybody changes teams then the server crashes, i'v browsed all threw out the forum and have only seen a couple of convos but with no answers or solutions. I thought if i could enable the auto assign (threw mani) that it would fix it but something is overriding it allowing ppl to change and choose teams
2. I have seen on a few servers that when you kill some one they go flying half way across the map, and also they have the "hot girl voice" when some one is dominating or gets a head shot. Any ideas on where to find these plug-ins and more like them, i'v checked eventscripts scripts but coulden't find them.

Thanks,
Dove-Hunter

From everything that I have heard, that team swap issue had to do with Mani and something with team balancing? Perhaps you should check there - not meaning to brush you off.

Mani is too unstable ATM and is easily hackable. If I was use I'd use sourcemod till mani is updated.

you could try updating your gametypes.txt for mani: http://www.mani-admin-plugin.com/joomla ... &Itemid=73

There a new version out of Mani Admin Plug-in V.1.2V you may want to try if not already. From my part I use mani only for the admin fonctionnality side, I have no issue with it. I am not calling the mani config server file either. I added "mani_adverts 0" & "es_flags remove notify mani_nextmap" in the server.cfg file to prevent mani to advert and to conflict with GG5 map change.

To prevent hacks, I put the client.txt file as read only and my server.cfg file as well and added the below lines in my server.cfg file.

sv_rcon_banpenalty 0
sv_rcon_maxfailures 5
sv_rcon_minfailures 5
sv_rcon_minfailuretime 15
alias "ma_client" "echo The command ma_client has been blocked"

The es_flags remove notify mani_nextmap should not be needed any more, FYI.

Yes I thought it would when you guys released the updated 477 but it didn't, it still shows if I don't put it . I tried it with 478 as well and get the same result.

Server cvar 'mani_nextmap' changed to gg_scope_homer
(CONSOLE) : set nextmap to gg_scope_homer

Yes it will still show. However, it will no longer crash the server. That was the point of the command in the first place. It kept the server from crashing before. Now, it is no longer needed unless you want to remove that message.

Ha! ok got it... . I 'll still keep that es command line you gave me, I like it. I am not seeing the winning map vote twice. GG5 is the one that manages the map vote, thanks

OK there is maybe an issue allright with mani! I don't use the mani_server.cfg file at all, It doesn't even exist in my CFG directory and today I updated mani and even if in my server.cfg file, mani_server is rem'd out, I copied the mani_server.cfg in the directory just for future look in it to see if there is something changed and noticed that my stats were OFF for somehow, So I used my mani admin menu to reactivate them and as soon as I did this, I got a server crash. I had to remove the mani_server.cfg file OFF the CFG directory to be able to have my stats back ON and no crash.
So maybe there is an issue with Mani and your team change if you are using it. I'll do further tests tomorow morning and see. Maybe if you try not to use man_server.cfg file, remove it from the cfg directory and see if you get a crash or not.
