As the title suggests, there was a deeper issue with my CA than first thought, and still is. When a player selects “Play Now”, they are very regularly thrown in to my custom arena instead of the many servers like “Server 001”. My CA is considered, by the system, as an official server that they can dump any random hotjoiners.
I was wondering if anyone else has ever had this problem and if you managed to prevent this behaviour with some sort of settings change that wasn’t just slapping a password on it. I’d like to give anything a try before the devs get around to fixing it. Essentially, the only way I can prevent random joins is to throw the settings completely out of whack of what a normal match would be, in such a way that is totally undesirable.

You can turn off progression, then they don’t send the hot join players to you anymore.
