ya it seems to be totally random.. at least theres nothing in the logs that is similar each time.. and its happens on random maps..

like tonight when i saw it happen.. it was on dod_orange.. so i know it cant be from cpu usage, as orange being a small simple map.. cpu usage only goes to like 20% on a full server (where ava on a full server is like 60+)

all i can think is something (or maybe players themselves, most likely not even knowing it) spamming something in some way, maybe even just a command idk... and causing the server to overflow, resulting in it dropping clients.. it could also be from too many internal game messages, even tho whenever i use any in plugins i usually set them as unreliable.. which means the msgs themselves should get dropped if its gonna be too much for the clients to handle.. could be from plugins that create entities in certain ways that occasionally the creation (or even the removal) causes the server to flip out.. could be a task or something getting caught up in an endless loop that doesnt quit till the clients the loop is running on are gone.. idk.. who knows, it could even be from the server getting hammered by ppl trying to connect
