Death by Darkly
Please report any problems that you or any other user has found with the DARKLY Trade servers here in this thread so that we may keep all Server issues together in one place.

I am making this a public thread so that if anyone else viewing this thread feels that there is a problem with any servers, or just in general, they can post it here and I will add it to the list.

General Problems

- Old versions of MetaMod​
- Old versions of SteamRep Checker​
- Public vote option for changing maps enabled​

Credits: Gatherix for a lot of updates.

Not all of the admin menus have 3 Reload Ads and 2 Reload Admins Commands. And some are 3 Reload Admins and 2 Reload Ads. And they ALL use TF2 Items instead of backpack.tf for backpacks.

There's also an exploit on the Minecraft map where if you can get noclip from RTD, you can go outside the map. Problem is people will do it as Engineers and then build buildings EVERYwhere. You can also jump off the edge and land really far down and build stuff down there too. Leaves buildings everywhere in hard to find places.

Yeah I know about that.
Simple solution for now is restarting the map.
Not long until new Darkly map :D

Just a heads up. Pinion has updated it's advertisement stuff. Most servers are giving an "oh noes, Pinion is outdated on the server" error and not making people stay on the ad for the set period of time. I have noticed it on our servers as well.

I am not sure if it's something we are aware of, but i didn't want us to lose ad revenue by not reporting it.

I'm New Here
Maybe this isn't the right place, and I apologize.

Every time Valve does a late afternoon/early evening update, Toronto TF2 Trade Idle #2 and #5 are out of commission until presumably the next day. These are the only 2 Darkly servers I hang out on, and can quite often check back until midnight EST or so...I'm just reporting what I personally see. Each server will have only 2-5 users present (idlers); I know #2 is pretty well-packed most of the time, so this should stand out as unusual to an admin. I guess the servers are just waiting for a restart so the update can be applied - any attempt to connect results in a "server is running older version of the game" message.

Right section, no worries.

From what I understand, it's just a matter of, as you said, the servers needing the update. Since the servers rely heavily on plugins for both user convenience and applications along with various server functions, the updates (I may be wrong) may need to be manually applied. You mentioned that you only play on those two Darkly servers - I'd imagine that, upon joining any other Darkly TF2 server, they would exhibit the same behavior. There aren't too many people who run the technical side of the servers, and rest assured they do their best to have updates applied and the servers running as soon as possible. Nevertheless I'll pay more attention during the next update to see if there's anything abnormal or unexpected.

Thanks!
