Hello,

 

It is currently 7/3/2012 at exactly 12:00AM and a lot of users are getting a random "Client timed out" error, forcing them a death and to the zombie side upon reconnection. I'm not exactly sure what is causing the issues, but if a higher rank could look into it, it'd be great!

 

Thanks.

It is a Steam issue.

 

What I'm seeing in the server console is:

STEAMAUTH: Client YourName received failure code 5

 

You then get disconnected with the reason "client timed out."

 

Unfortunately there isn't anything we can do to fix this issue on our end. It is affecting all GMod servers.

Yup. Its a Steam issue.

 

The Steam authentication server is telling the server to kick you. See the Facepunch thread I posted earlier for examples that its affecting all GMod servers.
