Question about spectator mode

Post by xtrapoint »

I made the server, and put all of the settings in the right spot, but when people connect they end up going straight to spectator mode, is there a way to stop this?

--The less people speak of their greatness, the more we think of it.
--Dealing with backstabbers, there was one thing I learned. They're only powerful when you got your back turned.
--I don't have to attend every argument I'm invited to.
--The dumber people think you are, the more surprised they're going to be when you kill them.
--There are two types of people - those who come into a room and say, "Well, here I am!" and those who come in and say, "Ah, there you are."
--It doesn't matter what temperature a room is, it's always room temperature.
--You can't have everything in the world, where would you put it?

Without seeing your settings it's hard to tell. I would double check the following from this list:
http://wiki.armagetronad.org/index.php/Console_Commands

AUTO_TEAM (probably should be set to 1)

and confirm the following are correct to:

SP_TEAMS_MIN
SP_TEAMS_MAX
TEAMS_MIN
TEAMS_MAX

I don't know which ones you want but these are the only ones i've changed the rest should be default.

Hmm.... I think SP_GAME_TYPE 0 might be throwing it off. Have you tried changing it to 1?
