Hey dev team,

Was hosting lobbies because of my serveme prem so I wasn't playing in one of the lobbies. I accidentally reserved an ultiduo cfg server because I was playing ultiduo last night, but I figured it'd be no problem since TF2C apparently handles that. I set up the lobby with the HL format and UGC config and everything seemed fine, but after the lobby started and the config was still on ultiduo. I couldn't join the server to manually change it because I wasn't in the lobby, so everyone ended up leaving. Don't want to try to reproduce this bug since it'd be majorly disruptive.

Gist of the story is that TF2C apparently doesn't change configs.

Hello.  This has been fixed as of a few weeks back.

There is a variable, I think it is called "servercfg", that is set by UGC config files.  This variable persists through restarts (e.g. map changes, etc.)

and will load a configuration file after restart.  It's default is serfer.cfg.

 

Ever noticed how UGC configs last through server restart?  this is why.

 

TF2C now forces that variable back to default.  So this issue should be cleared now.
