New Server Patch Showing False Players?

[Nutcracker]

Just installed the new patch on the dedicated server. Everything seems fine, except that now the server is showing players connected on the master server, even when no players are on it. Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated! ???

Yes, i have the same on my Linux-server, it counts the bots as real players so it always says that its 4 players even if now one plays ???

No, i installed the 2126 linux patch, i know this is the “Windows Specific” but I think it’s the same problem ;)

Mine now says 3 players, even with nobody connected. Glad they fixed all the bugs with the patch :thumbup:

Happened to me on my Win2k server after installing 2136 patch. Its counting the bots.

Yep. This is another "feature".

I like the feature!

It's actually a sensible feature. It helps draw players to your server when it's not well populated. People avoid empty servers, so running the bots and having them counted in your number of players helps "seed" the server. The bot slots fill up pretty quickly anyway.

I can certainly see your point. There are quite a few people who like it better this way. I, however, am not among those :)
