Adjust Squad 44 team balance and reserved slots

Reserved Slots, Allow Team Change and Enforce Team Balance affect different parts of joining a match. Review them together when players report that a server looks open but will not let them join a team.

File locations used below — relative to the server root
PostScriptum/ServerConfig/Server.cfg

Make the change

  1. Back up PostScriptum/ServerConfig/Server.cfg and record the current player and reserved-slot values.
  2. Stop the server between rounds.
  3. Set Reserved Slots to the number you intend to hold back, keeping it sensible relative to Max Players.
  4. Review Allow Team Change, Prevent team change and Enforce Team Balance in Startup.
  5. Start and test with ordinary player accounts, not only an administrator who may have different access.

Check the result

If team entry remains blocked, inspect the game’s team counts and permissions before raising every limit. Keep the hosting plan’s player estimates separate from the game’s own match rules.
