Natural Selection Server .. Moving.

[ferret]

The NS server is moving to a new IP and location. It will now be located at 67.39.161.12:27015 .. The DNS should be updated shortly.

This server is a Windows based machine hosted by Tech. NS plays a lot nicer with Windows than Linux, so hopefully we'll see no performance issues. The server uses a T-1 just like the old one, and is in a more central location than the last one (Which was in Minnesota).

Please let me or Tech know of any problems.

Second notice: NS has been converted from AMX to AMXX. Admins should take a moment to scan amx_help for any changes.

Right, the migration is good.

The following needs setting though:

- Auto conceed +4
- player limit +1

At the moment the limit is higher than the auto conceed limit and stackers end the game (then ask what happened)

Really need to have an F4 / Ready Room blocker and extra levels added also (minimum of level 12)

Apart from that, its awesome :)

cool.

Wait... I thought spurty hosted NS? Huh, may explain why there were actually playable pings on the server today.

Does this move open up another game server slot? So should we start having that discussion again?

No, because the NS server wasn't on the main server anyways. At this time Spurty's server (Or rather, the place that hosts it) is proving too unrealiable to host games on. Nothing to do with its hardware or anything, and more to do with the people who run the little data center closet it sits in.

I'll adjust those tonight, and look for the plugins. I should note though, the server.cfg is the same one as before, so this is what you originally setup ;P

Found a ready room blocker, still hunting on the extra levels plugins.

could you edit it so it doesn't desplay "this server is running extralevels2 plugin" every time you freaken spawn in?

[Tech]

Very easy. Ferret just has to remark out that printf statement for 'respawn' or all together. I can do this if ferret is feeling overloaded. :lol:

Sadly completely true and very dissapointing considering the costs involved.

Beta6 will do NOTHING to improve pings on Linux boxes just so you all know as the issue is with the hlds binary / libraries which were fubarred by Valve.

Techs server is way more stable ping wise even when loaded.

:P

[Tech]

i want to start a co only server too for fun, of course i will test ping compatabilities.

[Nefarious]

[Tech]

[Nefarious]
