Map Change breaks console commands
« on: June 27, 2008, 09:26:03 PM »
This could just be on my server.. but any help is great.  After a map change (via ULX), too many server disconnections (white screen after crash) or too much alt-tabbing, ULX console commands no longer work. Attempting to use them gives the following error, as though they do not exist;

Unknown Command: 'ulx'

You can either reconnect to the server manually or you can type retry in your console. Then you should be good.

Is there any way to prevent this from happening, or to fix it?

Thanks

Not that I've found, but I'm pretty sure this would be an issue with Garry and not ulysses.

We placed it in our SVN though, not yet a release.
DC, others, If you aren't wishing to use SVN and test for us, perhaps ask your other hosting friends to.

I've tested the svn with several map changes and it appears to be working just fine.
