Latest version is working fine in our Windows server, but the server crashes on restart after using the command “map [map name]”. Anyone else having this problem?

The server’s addon folder is completely empty save for this plugin, no MM nor SM.

You should never use the command “map”, it is used to start the server on a map and should only be in the launch parameters. You need to use changelevel to change the map.

We do use changelevel to switch maps, but as far as we knew “map” was just “_restart; changelevel”, and since both of those worked just fine we thought it was weird that “map” didn’t. Thanks for the clarification.

Can you unlock tf_tournament_hide_domination_icons for use with tournament 0?

“map” doesn’t disconnect the players correctly either (it can be important for some plugins that track need to know when a player disconnected, like TFTrue), so it might end up doing bad stuff.
“_restart” does a lot more than “map”.

TFTrue hadn’t updated itself on our servers, so I downloaded the latest version manually.

Just for future reference: If you remove the .so file that is in use (by for example replacing it with a newer version), the server will crash.

If you restart your server it should autoupdate.

The crash is a bug in srcds, it will do the same with any plugin, I doubt I can do something about that.

A piece of software breaking when you remove a resource in use doesn’t seem like a “bug”.

Considering that all linux distributions have a package update mechanism that replace files while they are in use and it works fine, it seems to me :)
(you are not required to close apps when you want to update them, unlike on windows)
The binary is loaded in memory, it shouldn’t matter if you delete the file on disk.

Is sv_logsdir supported?

It looks like it may work on Windows, but not on Linux, I’ll have to make some changes. You can try and see if it works.

I tried on my Linux server and it does not find the log after the end of the match. I can test if you want
