Half-Life 1 Engine

General bugs related to Half-Life 1 engine.

A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE not working

  • Observed: Servers don't respond to A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE.
  • Work-around: Use A2S_PLAYER or A2S_RULES instead with ffffffffh (-1) as challenge.
  • Work-around: Goldsource servers are still responding to the old challenge method. Just send the default header with "challenge rcon\n" after it. The server will send back a packet with the default header followed by: "challenge rcon (unsigned int)\n\0" where (unsigned int) is the challenge number.--Chris03 12:07, 30 Dec 2008 (GMT-5)

A2S_INFO issues

  • Observed: The map name from A2S_INFO is only updated when players are present.
  • Observed: Hostname and bot flag from A2S_INFO are only updated when the map changes.
  • Observed: bot count is now a bot flag, 1 means there were only bots during map change.

A2S_RULES issues

  • Observed: Server rules from A2S_RULES, like amx_nextmap or mp_timeleft, are only updated when the map changes.
  • Observed: mp_timelimit is off by a few minutes (only the value returned by A2S_RULES, rcon is ok though).

HLTV

banid command

  • Observed: Reports from AMXX forum that the HLDS banid command doesn't take quotation marks anymore (thus breaking plugins that use quotes around parameters). link
