server not showing up in active games list

Recommended Posts

Greetings,

Very new to managing a hosted server so I am running into new and interesting problems that I never have before when hosting ad hoc servers on a machine local to me.

Problem 1) It takes FOR EVER for our hosted server to appear in the game browser. Filter on server name and go get a sandwich, it's going to take a while. Eventually it does show up. Is this a Gamserver.com issue or simply the fact that our server is one of thousands?

Problem 2) If nobody is in the server, the mission goes blank and it just sits there. Nobody is going to join a server to check it out if there is no mission name associated with it. I see lots of servers with zero population and a mission name. How do I configure the server to make sure that the mission is always shown?

1. This has been a problem since gamespy was shut down and servers started reporting via steam instead. Waiting on a fix still.

2. Turn the "persistent battlefield" setting on.
