Hello !
Many of you dont know it... but many people are already beginning with some kind of stats logging. I just wanted to inform you, that the current state of the cs:s dedicated server version does not allow accurate log parsing ala PsychoStats, HLStats...!
The Log Output of CS:S sometimes misses connect lines as well as entered the game lines. Well this wouldnt be much of a problem if there were not the problem that sometimes KILLS get logged as suicides! (Log_level 15 does not help!)
I got log files even from servers all over the world and tried it (I guess this were all windows servers) and I could verify the missing log lines.
You can also track when this happens. Just open the Server in VGUI mode and look at the Players TAB -> You will see that sometimes players are playing on the server but not showing up in this tab! Exactly when this happens -> Everyone who kills a player not in this players list get logged as being suicided!
I tested it with standard configs, log_levels, console mode, VGUI mode, I got logs from different servers -> everywhere the same problem! We really have to push this to valve so they will know it. I reported this problem since the BETA but it always got ignored!
Kind regards and plz help us fix this,
LD
