well there's also things such as what your computer can handle/when it will start lagging etc.

Personally I prefer 12-player limit with class limits on.

Once you start going to 16, 18, or 20 people, servers start lagging like crazy unless they're dedicated, and the only server I know that does that so far is TraviRider's.

And if you don't set classlimits when you have...say an 18-player server, you're just asking for lag, desync, major spam, and whatnot.

Then again, from the comments on your topic it seems like your computer can handle it so no problem.

Yeah, I can only handle 13 players including me. No class limits though, kicking it old school.

He means like if you have an 18 person server, you're going to have 4-5 rocketmen and such spamming and causing massive lag if you don't limit the number of rocketmen.

On Vindicators Server mod, you can set limits on classes. Like a 1 soldier limit, meaning only one person on each time can play soldier.

A good standard is 1-2 players allowed per class.

15 player limit (including self)

2 class limit
 x11 x12 x13 x14 x15 x19

1 class limit
 x16 x17 x18 quote
