No, it seems to kick randomly even if I put the variable on 3.

OK.
I changed the whole method of kicking by least time on the server.

Should work now.

Does that mean that we don't need that cvar anymore ?

Quote:

sm_reserve_kicktype 0
0 = Highest Ping
1 = Highest Time
2 = Random
3 = Lowest Time

No.
The other methods still work, so you need the cvar.

Technical explanation.
The old method of kicking by least time on the server involved checking everyone's time on the server and finding the shortest one and kicking them (except people with custom1 and reservation of course). The detection method was not reliable.

So I decided to implement a LIFO - last in first out.
This is an ADT array where your client number gets stored in the array. If you leave, the client number is removed. If you are the last one in, you will be the first to go....

Hope this makes sense

I might suggest to the devs to add this to the normal SM reserved slot plugin.

It is not working properly, when I set it to the lowest time. And I type reserved slot 1 in HLSW it kicks the player with the least time, but when it enters into L4D another player connects before me. It won't keep the slot open...

sm_reservedslot_time 30.0
sm_reserve_kicktype 3

This is what I have set in the sourcemod.cfg file

Set up autojoin BEFORE you open the slot.
You should connect immediately a person gets kicked.

Ahh, it's too bad that HLSW doesn't have an auto join option. I can just use it in L4D I guess

.

Thanks!

There is an auto-join option.

Guy I'm so sorry but your plugin definitly doesn't kick the lowest spend time player on the server, the thing that you've done with the ID Number I don't know what, was wrong, there is an example of why :
