Problem With Non-dedicated Steam Server

<div class="IPBDescription">Pausing when opening the console</div> My main problem is when I make a steam server with my CLIENT install.
It seems whenever somone opens the console or the like, the WHOLE SERVER pauses, like it is a single-player game.
Does anyone know if this is fixable without another NS update? Or is it something wrong with my computer?
My only other complaint (since that's all it is) is that there's no way to specify a player limit when making a server like this. I'm pretty sure I know how to get around this problem, however.

Look for this line:
<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->
// disable clients' ability to pause the server
pausable 1
<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
And change it to this:
<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->
// disable clients' ability to pause the server
pausable 0
<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Default NS ships with pausable set to 1 for listen servers, and I have no idea why. But setting this to 0 should fix it.
