is that you can’t change the variable on the fly like some of the others.

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve set up a CoD4 server using the 06282008 release
of the cod4 linux server running on amd64 Ubuntu.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Everything seems to work except that “+set dedicated
1” specified on the command line is ignored. The server always starts as
internet dedicated server.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve tried to set dedicated in the console after
starting the gate, but it reports that dedicated is read only.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I see that there is an open bug regarding the issue: #3562<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Will this feature be supported in future?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></p>
