Switch off Your pingboost :D

I've just got the info from another experienced AMD64linux user.

He is recommending:
- to run "top", to see cpu load on each cpu and on each kernel on cpu.
- turn off other servers, because they clear cache on cpu when
sheduler change task very often, linux kernel have options,
that allow you to change frequency, its name in kernel:
Timer frequency:
- 100 HZ (recommended on DS!)
- 250 HZ
- 1000 HZ
and another option: Preemption Model:
- No Forced Preemption (Server)
- Voluntary Kernel Preemption

Another experience - server with 2 AMD64 Opteron processors:
For some unknown reason more players than 26 was increasing the CPU usage to maximum. The solution was odd (but effective):
run server on different kernel on CPU.

Try these hints above and let us know if Your problem is gone.

Don't be angry KWo but I will NEVER change a kernel only to get PodBot running :D
I changed the steam binary to start the server but with all options the effect is the same, the bots are in slow motion mode...

Re: Podbot vR2B46d, MM 1.19-p28 and AMXX 1.71
 

OK - try the latest beta (v3beta9a) - it uses different way of calculation frame's time. Maybe it will help You.

Re: Podbot vR2B46d, MM 1.19-p28 and AMXX 1.71
 

Thanks, I will give it a try coming weekend...

Re: Podbot vR2B46d, MM 1.19-p28 and AMXX 1.71
 

I installed v3beta10a now and the slow motion seems to be gone.
Now the bots are walking like drunken, running in a circle or against walls.

Take a look yourself

I was unlucky, because when I was there - on Your server there were playing only 2 bots and 4 people... Didn't see the effect bumping into walls as drunken. I think it could happen for You on some maps You are using incorrect waypoints - for example - de_aztec used with pwf created for de_aztec CS1.5 or something like that. Try to observe it more carefully - if it happens only on certain maps or on each map.

Re: Podbot vR2B46d, MM 1.19-p28 and AMXX 1.71
 

I am using the Waypoints from the directory.
I am running dust2 and italy only on this server.

Do you have better waypoints for me for that?

btw. does an amxx mod exist for the menu stuff?

Re: Podbot vR2B46d, MM 1.19-p28 and AMXX 1.71
 

What do You mean? Read podbot.cfg provided with the beta - there is describen how to invoke podbot menu whille playing on dedicated server (that stuff with setinfo and that bind).

Re: Podbot vR2B46d, MM 1.19-p28 and AMXX 1.71
 

Well I did this and its working fine.
What I was asking for is if there is a posibility to add this menu as submenu into the standard amxx menu.
Currently the menu needs an own setinfo and command.

It would be nice if it can be a submenu of amxx using its rights system also.
