[LINUX BUG] Unable to chat ingame
« on: February 16, 2009, 04:37:32 am »

The server is Linux. Whenever anyone tries to chat ingame to another player no next appears. Their console reads:

Unknown command: say

Chatting does work on other servers but not this one. What should I look at? Everything else seems to work fine.

It is likely similar to when a valve update broke some things with linux servers in hl2 Deathmatch. so it even happens on official games.

Like lodle said, we will still have the coders try troubleshoot it.

I know htis is not a fix and you guys do wanto to and will fix it but I strongly recomend when Valve and source engine is concerned to use a windows based server not becasue it not working now but who knows when Valve will release an update that breaks linux servers it has happend many times in the past.
