Hi!

I struggle with this problem for a 2-3 months period, tried everything, looked into plugins but i couldn't find any useful information. There is only one bot on the server which is the GOTV any other players are real players but they're showing as BOTs, please help me to resolve this issue.

Best Regards,
Erik

having the same problem with my servers
is this tracker dead? does anybody maintain it?

Cs:go sunucumda 20 kisi olmasina ragmen 5 i bot olarak gozukuyor. Ve bu durum sunucumun rank atlamasini zorlastiriyor. Bunun çözümü nedir?

This issue has been ongoing as early as 2019 from a thread I found and I can't seem to find an official response. I am also having this issue. Getting an official response would be lovely.

A false answer written in this thread was that foreign/invisible characters can cause this, but by this screenshot you can see that's simply not true.

There are no foreign characters (I had a player remove one from their name), and our SG TV Bot is not registered as a bot. Even with the foreign character in their name the bot was not registered, but other players were not misflagged.

Gametracker can only present the values supplied by the game server response.

Sorry you have to keep responding to the same bug report, but would you know anything server-side we can do to help keep this information (and our rank) accurate?

It's probably not useful but; asking the game developers to provide a fix.

I have noted that the problem is quite sporadic and rarely seems to last beyond a single game.
It also appears that allowing nameless players to join can cause this.
I don't have or play CSGO so I can't test this personally.

The fact that the problem is usually very short lived (from what I have seen) and normally only affects on or two player displayed means it will have very little effect on server statistics.

Hi support.

On our server we have people playing for hours at a time, and some of the die hard players have been flagged as bots. They are obviously real players as we don't have bots at all. You can login any time yourself and see.

It also seems like this issue is isolated to GT as other trackers don't show this.

Here is a link to our server: https://www.gametracker.com/server_info/51.79.162.166:27015/

Here is an image showing what I'm talking about and some affected players: https://imgur.com/a/VaKLyrR

Any help would be appreciated thanks!

It's not the server/game developers problem. It's gametracker's implementation. I have been following servers with this problem for 2 days, running A2S queries myself (_INFO and _PLAYERS) with raw udp packets (so to make sure it wouldn't be a third party library that prints me something different). The results didn't match with what gametracker was displaying. All a2s_info and a2s_players responses were accurate, they would contain only one bot usually (the GOTV bot) and list all the others as players, while gametracker would display that there are multiple bots on the server. It is an issue on gametracker's side.

Hello!

I`m having a problem with GameTracker witch display players like bots. I have only one bot, GOTV call like "BOT JB.GGEZ.RO". In the video I`m using a PHP library that calls A2S player. As you can see in the video there is no bots in the request. Any ideas?

Server: https://www.gametracker.com/server_info/JB.GGEZ.RO:27015/

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWMUSZpDbRM

Cvars:

host_name_store 1
host_info_show 2
host_players_show 2
host_rules_show 0

"host_rules_show 0" but GT still get server variables.
