New Seattle SOAP DM server, need help

5 Frags +

I recently got a 10-slot server and installed SOAP DM on it. Someone on Reddit offered to help me test it and he managed to get a bunch of people on it last night. Some of players connecting from the Seattle area got very good latency to the server, as low as 8-10ms.

I need help limiting the items players can use, I could not get a blacklist/whitelist working unless I set mp_tournament to 1, which I don't want to do. I checked a Chicago DM server and it shows in the chat with nice colors that an item you are equipping is blocked. How can I get that behavior too? Is it a plugin?

I would also like players to be able to call a vote to kick someone, I can do it as admin, but I won't be on it so frequently so I thought it would be nice to let players vote on it. Is this be even necessary? Can someone with an approved class and loadout start griefing? A hacker could also get in I guess.

So far I have a radio plugin which I haven't tested, a high-five enemies plugin and most of the base Sourcemod plugins. I also have a scramble plugin, but I tried to enable only the auto-balance features, so that it may move people around in case the teams happen to be too imbalanced in terms of frags per minute. I installed an AFK manager that kicks in (or should, haven't tested it) after a few players have connected, not sure if this one is even necessary.

Try the server here:

connect 63.208.142.11:27015

I tried getting some help and opinions on this reddit post, but it seems this forum is the place to ask:

Can someone who knows the person who runs the some of the other DM servers ask him/her how to get item blocking working? That's the main thing missing from this new server.

the plugin is called tNoUnlocksPls, I'm the one who runs the servers with the whitelist. If you have any other questions just let me know

Sweet, thanks! What class limits are you using for your 10-slot servers?

Do you know if someone has added spawn points to support more maps like cp_process? I think the cfg file I got doesn't support cp_process but I've seen some streamers DM in it.

extv is 2demo 2scout 2soldier 1sniper

extv at least has process, there was a link on another thread about a dm server lemme find it

EDIT:

flocke0id love to put process there but i thought, there were no spawns in SOAP for it. If you know where i could get them just gimme a link D:

[EDIT] found an updated version: https://github.com/Shwan-/SOAP-TF2DM/blob/15471bf942a88a44f3b6885a8ac39cf08fff8525/addons/sourcemod/configs/soap.cfg

it includes spawns for cp_process_b5

im not going to add this map to the server, because its very unpopular and people will keep getting "missing map" errors

[EDIT 2]

based on the fact, that the spawns should be equal i used the same spawns for cp_process_rc2 and added this to the mapcycle

This is the one that I use (it includes Process RC2 spawns which are the same as b10)

Thanks guys! I have the plugin to block some unlocks working. I'm going to add the spawns for process and add it to the rotation. It seems it's not too hard to create spawns for other maps.

Fog, how did you get your server to show "SOAP DM" in the "game" column in the server browser? Is that something you can add to the server.cfg file?
