MOTD Problem
« on: June 24, 2015, 05:32:48 AM »
Hey Guys,

We've got a problem with the motd on our server. I already searched a lot if other people have this problem too, but I didn't found anything.
The problem is that everyone gets shown a different motd, which aren't from our server and they are from different servers where the people didn't even ever joined. Of course I checked the motd datas on the server and they were the right ones from our server, i also replayced them serval times, but it didn't help.
I can't really explain how there can be a motd of a different server be shown, when the file of that motd is not on the server, and i dont know why everyone has a different motd of different servers they never joined....

Has anyone a solution for this problem?

Thanks,
DH

In order for the MOTD to work, the clients have to download the ulx_motd.txt file from the server. This gets stored in the data folder. However, there looks to be a bug where the MOTD shows up before that file has fully downloaded, thus it shows your clients whatever previous ulx_motd was set from a previous server.

Thanks for your reply. I added a resource.addfile with the motd in the data folder, but it didnt solve the problem... have you any other ideas?  :(
