Since the inception of the TF2 Newbs server (a stock rotation server) on the first day of beta one of the challenges has been to keep the server full, or at least populated enough where I don’t have to sit there for 6 hours by myself. Unfortunately due to things outside of my control we’ve had to change the IP addresses of our servers a couple of times, combined with our rapid expansion in total servers (currently we have 8 maintained by me + 2 donated to the community by others) early in the day its common to find the servers empty, requiring people interested in playing to sit on an empty server waiting for those first few people to join. When I have time, this would be me. Oh how I yearned for a way to easily invite my friends who were around to come play too. Once in a blue moon I could hit shift-tab, bring up the overlay pick a friend, and invite them to the game I’m in. But most of the time the option just wasn’t there. I then learned from someone very very smart, that all you need to do in order to get the invite option to come back is to change your ‘status’ on steam, and it’ll magically reappear.
Also an easy way is to tell your friends the name of the map, then your friends put the name of the map in search filters on the server list, it will take about a 2 minute wait and your server should appear on the server list, also always put svlan 0 in console or in your listenserver.cfg. You can watch your friends play by selecting Watch Game from the drop down next to friend's name in your friends list. From a friend's profile - Below the Currently In Game text, select Watch Game. Setting up a Broadcast. As soon as you start playing a game, your friends will be able to send you a request to watch. Broadcast Settings.
