I only had it happen once on my server. It does not not happen when running from a mod on map test. It happens when running a Public Server.

Mods that crash Server:

ACE <--- Reported by Server Admins.

AWE <--- Happened once to me. (Server hung, and all players stuck in weapon choice menu on map start. Never looked at what error was in console, had to restart the server Pronto, and it overwrote, console_mp.log. But it was for sure the Drown Script, said something about Spawn in trigger)

Possibly more Mods??


Here is the basis of the crash. Sent to me by an ACE user.

Maybe this is happening because multiple players are trying to access the same script at exactly the same time??

ask IW what a removed entity exactly is and why this error comes up

I would but, would an answer even come my way?

Anyways, I've ended up scrapping the Drown script for that map, and moved on. Started this thread trying to disallow prone in the water, but since that won't work, I'll just leave the water alone. Oh well...

Hmmmm...... Unbind their prone key if they are in the water ?

you'd have to bind it after they left it, and not everybody used the default bindings

Heres a modified drown script that will work with spawns underwater and with mods

The Shift + , key really needs to be fixed :/

Are you 100% on that KILL3R?

I'm curious because I'll buddy it up against this other modified Drown script I sent to a guy with ACE, and he said it still crashed the server. There are a couple versions floating around, but I'll take your word for it and do some testing pronto. Thank you.

The script error you posted earlier is caused when a player disconnects while still in the water because the scripts are trying to remove hud elems that were already removed when the player disconnected and also checking if the disconnected player is touching the trigger
