Well yet again AC servers seem to be having a demo problem. I was in my server doing a match and at the end I simply wanted to get the demo. I received ac_shine just like I wanted yet it played something completely different. From this, I noticed that my other server had players in it and that I had somehow received the demo from that server. I'm not sure how this happens but I do know the circumstances it takes for it.
Ok say you have two servers, one on the default port (28763) and one not on default (28765). If you are playing on the 28765 non default and the default 28763 server is in current use and had games switch in it, then you will get a demo from the 28763 when you ask for a demo from the 28765. Why does this happen? The default 28763 server has to be in use and maybe rotated a few games in it before the 28765 server decides to mess the demos up. Can someone knowledgeable with servers please describe to me why this happens and if it can be fixed? All help appreciated :)
