i put the map patch on the default map worked fine island showed up playable....why cant I get a custom map to work it shows in the script log everything was completed yet for 16 hours it goes from apply geo changes #442 to #447 then restarts it cant be this dam hard to add a map to the server. I need help with this I cant seem to find any answers anywhere

is there a way to manually upload the maps to the servers?

if this " apply geo changes" step takes longer than an hour you have to talk to your hoster. they're probably limiting cpu resources on you.

ok ill find out from them thanks for the reply

ok here is as far as it goes then it loops back to #442 its like it stops and restarts would that still be the cpu usage being limited

it's just applying the new map information to the navmesh. if that get's interrupted for whatever reason, it can only be due to external factors, such as resource abuse mitigation on the hoster's servers. It's a sensible thing to do for them cause gameservers usually don't suck up 100% of the available CPU power over a longer period of time. But in this case their mitigation is working against them ...

It might also run out of memory. A custom map install needs roughly 3-4 GB of RAM available.

we've seen this kind of issue before with PingPerfect servers: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=384&p=1067
