Can't join on empty server

[SpaceKoi89p]

When the server I'm currently playing on is empty and hasn't been been restarted in a while it give me a short loading screen and puts me back in role selection. I'm the only one on this servers players that has this issue. I can fix it by going into resource monitor and halting the process for a few seconds when entering the loading screen.

can you share the client and server rpt file (log files)

your server is using persistent = 1;

[SpaceKoi89p]

Does persistence keep ai loaded so when no is on server i.e. do ai capture cities/bases? The admin would like to stop that from happening apparently. Also why am I the only one experiencing this issue if disabling persistence is the issue? Thanks in advance

[tbox1911]

hi, yes

with persistent = 1;

the server keep ai loaded and they still continue to capture cities/bases.

to prevent this and make the server stop when the last player disconnected, use:

persistent = 0;

in server config

also, errors like:

13:27:18 Error: Bone propbackpackright doesn't exist in skeleton OFP2_ManSkeleton 13:27:18 Error: Bone propbackpackleft doesn't exist in skeleton OFP2_ManSkeleton 13:27:18 Error: Bone turningaxis doesn't exist in skeleton OFP2_ManSkeleton

and

13:27:19 Warning Message: No entry '.turnSpeed'. 13:27:19 Warning Message: '/' is not a value 13:27:19 Warning Message: No entry '.stance'. 13:27:19 Warning Message: '/' is not a value

often mean you miss some mod on your side
