Topic: Only 5 connections?

So I was running a teeworlds server on my vps using the latest code available as of today and an issue came up every time more than 5 people tried to connect. Despite having max connections in my config set to 16 every time a 6th person tried to connect it gave a no ack, timeout error. The port in use was 8303 which I am told is completely open by my vps host. I am using ubuntu and I made sure that all firewalls were not on.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Re: Only 5 connections?

Are you using the pure Teeworlds server? Are the 6th players always dropped or isn't it just an issue concerning one player?

I am using the pure 0.5 trunk server and it happens no matter who the 6th player is. And it affected one server at a time meaning that I could have ctf running with up to 5 players and dm running with up to 5 players at the same time.

Misconfigured iptables rules maybe.
