    As I have seen several complaints regarding gravity not working (in the admin menu), I have decided to make a info topic about that.

    Regarding Gravity: With the last update, Valve seems to have fucked up the way how physics, mainly gravity is working. The Method which SourceMod previously used (setting a Netprop) doesn't work anymore, and there is no way to circumvent this.

    Additionally, trigger_gravity's also seem to be broken (custom maps w/ changed gravity.
    There is nothing either the SM team or we could do about it, we have to wait for Valve to fix it.

    TL;DR Gravity is not working atm, just stop asking about that.

    Another thing: Since last update, the servers sometime decide to "lock up", which means they will lag really hard and will also randomly disappear from the Server browser.
    The only way to fix this is by restarting the Server - and wait for Valve to actually fix it.

    If you notice any of our Servers lagging weirdly (like, unplayable), but others are working fine - please contact me. I will try to restart affected server(s).

    Also seems to be a horrendously bad (and obvious exploit) where, if you have the Eureka Effect, you can build inside of spawn, and bring in buildings into spawn, not self destructing.

    With Valve's Love & War update, the described issues have been fixed.
    Locking this.
