Correct me if I'm wrong but a map on a server will auto-start, even when nobody joined, clicked fire or whatever, maps will always auto-start

I tried XMPTE on my server with MinNetPlayers= 1 or 2 but this doesn't seem to change anything
Maps still autostart :(

thx

Did you set bTournament=True?

no, it's a public server
does it only work with bTournament=True ?

I have
[XMPTEb6.XMPTE]
bForceWinners=True
bPlayersMustBeReady=False
bOffsetVehicleSpawn=False
bTournament=False
bSuddenDeath=True
NetWait=5
MinNetPlayers=2

btw, can you confirm that XMP maps always auto-start ?

Without XMPTE games will always auto start after PreMatchWait seconds have passed.

With XMPTE, games with no players will (theoretically) NOT auto start if bPlayersMustBeReady=True or bTournament=True -- bTournament means that the game won't start until a) there are MaxPlayers on the server or b) at least MinNetPlayers are on the server and NetWait seconds have passed.

I say theoretically because I've only tested this under extremely limited amounts of real-world situations. Let me know how it works out.

I put bPlayersMustBeReady back on, now it works
Downside is that if a player is idling, the game won't start if they don't click fire

Thx for the input !
