This was not a game server related CPU load issue. There were a total of 20 players total across all our servers when this happened. Unless something drastic crashed and then magically fixed itself, this was caused by something else.
If I had access I would check the system logs but since I can’t I’d have to guess either a network issue or something system related on tron. Probably a network issue because the Left4Dead server only lost one of it’s players.
