The default setting almost always swith 2 players and almost always doesn't do any effect to balance the team.

0 admins with immunity will be switched.
1 admins with immunity will be protected from switches. (Default)

ptb_limitjoin_immunity <0|1>
0 admins with immunity will not be able to choose any team they want.
1 admins with immunity can choose any team they want. (Default)

Installation instructions
1. Copy the new ptb.cfg to addons/amxmodx/configs/
2. Copy ptb.sma to addons/amxmodx/scripting/ and compile it
3. Copy the compiled file ptb.amxx from the compiled folder to the plugins folder.
4. Add a line ptb.amxx to your amxmodx plugins.ini

5. Edit ptb.cfg to suit your needs (Good settings for a 20 player server):

amx_ptb maxsize 11 // maximum team size per team
amx_ptb maxdiff 2 // maximum team size difference

or maybe

amx_ptb maxsize 12 // maximum team size per team
amx_ptb maxdiff 4 // maximum team size difference

The forumla to make it fit your server:
amx_ptb maxsize should be set at maxplayers/2 + amx_ptb maxdiff/2
NOTE: Certain maps like nuke,train, militia and italy only has 10 spawns/team.

6. Enable the required module cstrike in modules.ini or PTB wont load properly


DONE

Good Luck!
