Can you copy-paste the content of your etc/hostingPresets.conf file ? (except the password setting if you configured one)

No, I did mean hostingPresets.conf.

I think I know why it does that, it's because of the limitation which has been added recently for autohosts without bot flag: autohosts without bot flag are limited to 8 players max. SPADS tries to open a battle for 16 players according to your hostingPresets.conf file, but the lobby server opens a battle for 8 players instead. SPADS detects this inconsistency and tries to re-open the battle for 16 players and so on...

I will try to make a workaround for that in SPADS when I have some time, but for now you can either ask for a bot flag or change the maxPlayers setting in your hostingPresets.conf file to 8.

Thank you working perfectly now with 8 max players.

@bibim can you set default maxPlayers to 10? These issue threads will continue until it is made default.

I fixed SPADS so that it no longer tries to rehost for >10 players if no bot flag is detected.
