    I'm missing something obvious...

    When I fire up a Dedi (ever since 1130...) the maximum number of clients is limited to 15...

    I've tried closing the dedi, editing: " "Max MP Players":16," in the Multiplayer.JSON and restarting but the dedi always remains with a maximum of 15 players and the JSON is overwritten and defaults back to 16..

    Where should I be tweaking this? FWIW we have multiple dedis installed on the same server but I'm definitely editing the correct player folder for the dedi we currently have running.

    Thanks - I think we’re set to ‘LAN’ for historical reasons - i guess a previous admin believed this basically equated to ‘unlimited’. Are there any guidelines published for client numbers vs bandwidth settings?

    Our server is actually a commercially rented Windows server so we can probably uncover our metered bandwidth allowance if we have one.

    Solved, thanks. I’ve set a custom bandwidth and this has unlocked the max-clients.
