[solved] cannot /devmap atcs – "server is full on local connect"

[zybork]

Tried to /devmap atcs recently, and I found out that I ... can't. The last message is "server is full on local connect", the program exits when trying to open a /map or /devmap.

This is a newly installed system, anybody any idea how I could solve this? Google told me nothing so far.

Try setting sv_maxclients to at least 1 greater than your sv_privateClients (sv_maxclients is latched, so you may have to "restart" to get the new setting), e.g.,

Code ("press ~ and enter this") Select Expand

/seta sv_privateClients 0
/seta sv_maxclients 8
/vid_restart

I checked my configuration files, default.cfg actually had the number or slots for private clients smaller than that of maxclients, however, I (got a new main harddrive and took the opportunity to get rid of a lot of software packages and) installed a new system recently, the way I solved it was, to go to console and type

/exec default.cfg

that helped. I have made the experience that Tremulous is a bit buggy concerning configurations sometimes, by simply reloading the config I obviously solved the problem. It works now.

Except in safe mode, autogen.cfg/autogen_server.cfg takes precedence over default.cfg (and since all cvars are saved in autogen.cfg/autogen_server.cfg, default.cfg is rarely useful), and autoexec.cfg always takes precedence over that. If you want your settings to really always apply, put them in autoexec.cfg.

Aha, thx for the info.
