New Update (?) - Server doesnt change automatically to TTT2 anymore

[Creyox]

Hey,

today I was working on my server and I noticed a severe bug: When I join this error is printed in the console:

TTT initializing convar settings...

My start parameters:

## Server Start Settings | https://docs.linuxgsm.com/configuration/start-parameters
ip=""
port="27015"
clientport="27005"
sourcetvport="27020"
defaultmap="ttt_minecraft_b5"
maxplayers="12"
tickrate="66"
gamemode="terrortown"

It seems as if something with TTT2 changed, because yesterday everything worked fine. Here's a screenshot of the bug:

I already figured out, why this happens: The server doesn't change the gamemode to TTT2 automatically when starting up. I can't tell you the exact version of TTT2, because it's not loaded and in conclusion to this not printed in the log, but it has to be the latest released workshop version. You can review the whole log here: https://pastebin.com/RUW5yAe6

I rollbacked my server to a backup I made the 17th of February (where everything worked) and the error still happened, so something must have changed...

Id be grateful if you would fix this bug, because at the moment the whole server is not usable. Maybe I'm dumb and just have to change the start parameters to "terrortown2" or whatever...

Thanks for you work :D

Hey there, thanks for the report :) I reverted the version back to the one from yesterday in order to investigate your reported bug. Could you try to test again? If it's working now, there seems to be a new bug we are going to fix asap.

[Creyox]

Okay the error doesn't exist anymore. Seems as if this is a bug in the newest version. Thanks for the quick reaction. If you have any follow-up questions feel free to ask :P

[Alf21]

Okay ty for the fast response. Could you please list the addons that are stored in your server's /addons folder too ? :)

[Creyox]

I got 3 more addons: Rlib, TTT-SB-Ranks and luneramotd https://github.com/Decicus/TTT-Scoreboard-Ranks-for-ULX https://github.com/im-richard/rlib

Okay we think that the gmod update tool created some corrupted .gma files, so I retried again and updated to the newest version 0.6.2b. If you have some time, feel free to test again and respond, whether it's fixed :)

[Creyox]

Seems fixed to me

[Alf21]

Haha o.O Then we need to say thanks to the gmod updating tool, happens quite often :( Feel free to report anything else you noticed, even ideas or add-on ideas: https://github.com/TTT-2/addon-ideas

[Creyox]

Yeah I'll do and already did ;P
