Cup Mode and ladder points

Hi, I recently started a cup server. I just noticed that noone is getting Ladder Points at the end of the track. It only shows the score and never switches to ladderpoints (as it usually does).
Is LP disabled in cup mode? I was playing on a Cup server in old TM and there you gained ladderpoints.
in my server settings i have Ladder Mode set to normal.
Any ideas why its not working?

Did you register your server as ladder server on your player page?
Please go there and read the rules, and what else you have to do...

No, its 0-50000.
I tested to create a local server in time attack, then it shows LP at the end of the round and when i change to cup, no LP are shown. Seems like its disabled for Cup mode?

hm, possibly a missing configuration somewhere.
Which server controllers are you using?

Its cup mode. You dont get points at the end of the map, you get them at the end of the cup when it is won.
The real problem (presuming its the same as united) is the points you receive are small. That is, you get an amount of points worth only a single map, not for the multiple maps and excessive time duration of the cup.

Another option is to look how the Smurfs are doing it in their SmurfsCup (e.g. for
Canyon) : they have a protocol of the achieved rounds and times over a certain period (usually 1h), where players get automatic LP, and the Planets for the cup are distributed afterwards.

I've set it so that the cup ends (3 winners) on each track (no round limits)

Nobody knows? I recently noticed that the server sometimes shows LP and other times don't, maybe 9/10 it doesnt. So I mean it is working sometimes :S. Its now 60k ladder server btw.

Does it just show 0.0 LP for some or all players, or nothing at all then?

Hi, it shows nothing, just the Cup points.
