Socket not freed after gamemode restart #4

I posted this on the forum but I figured it would get a better response here.

I've mentioned this before but I will again because it's breaking my server restarts: Every time the server restarts with this plugin, it shows this error: "socket_listen(): Socket has failed to bind. (IP localhost, Port 7778) The port might be already in use." Yes I've called socket_stop_listen and yes I've called socket_destroy on OnGameModeExit. Any other time it works perfectly fine and there are no other programs running on the machine that are taking that port (I checked with netstat).

For now I've added a check on OnGameModeInit that just kills the server (using a crash) if the socket fails to bind. The server does this a few times until finally binding properly. Sending rcon exit or gmx doesn't work, I have to actually crash the server to make this work. I'd love to have a solution to this that doesn't require crashing the server and making it restart 4-5 times before binding properly!

confirmed, I have a minigames server and it restarts after each minigame ends, the sockets plugin doesn't work there because of this problem. Hope it gets fixed!

Confirmed, we need this fixed.
