<div class="IPBDescription">2 times at changelevel, why?</div> As evidenced in the attached screenshot my server config is executed 3 times upon starting my Win32 server. At changelevel it is executed twice.
If you chose not to believe the attached screenshot as evidence, know that I have "wb add" <i>once</i> in my server config to add 1 whichbot, and 3 bots are added upon startup and 2 at changelevel. In questioning clamatius on this he agreed the server config is being exec'd more than once.
Anyone have a clue why server configs are executed more than once?

Here's my me-too post. Only I'm running HLDS so that at least proves this isn't an issue just with the windows code.
This exact same thing happens to me..

my server.cfg is so close to kwickloaders I won't bother posting it.
pardon my posting linux stuff in here, but I think this isn't so much a linux vs. windows issue as it is a config/hlds/ns issue.
Remove it from your startup and comment it out of your server.cfg, restart server, change maps and tell us what happens...

Startup line and server.cfg modified as suggested, and server re-started.
This time only 2 bots were added at startup (as opposed to 3) and 1 is added at changelevel.
This appears to fix the problem. However, I read somewhere that this line had some significance. Does anyone know what it does (mapchangecfgfile)?
