minupdaterate

[Lazybender]

should minupdaterate be 20 or 10 because i heard when its 10 and if the cleints go low enough u experince lag

[hexitnow]

what is your tickrate on your server?

[Lazybender]

33.

i have a question ur net_graph3 the tickrate should be level with the updaterate. but on servers i go that are ladders server like INternode or Gamearena and Gamespace their tickrate and updaterate ain't 100 but their like 20 and 10. Y is this? If u get no choke then this should not be a problem Right?

if this happens i can make my server 66tick with no Choke

[hexitnow]

No choke is the best thing possible you dont want any choke any at all. Choke usually happens because of incorrectly configured rates. Your sv_minupdaterate and sv_maxupdaterate should be set to what your tickrate is. If you running a tickrate of 33 then set both sv_minupdaterate and sv_maxupdaterate to 33. I think i might make a mattie eventscripts so that u can change all ur rates on the fly when more people join or leave. If this is something I decide to do would you want me to send it your way.

[Lazybender]

yes man, any thing that can help my server but what u mean change rates if more people come. u mean e.g 3000 when its 2 people and will increase if their are more people are joininig

[Lazybender]

they said you only change ur maxupdaterate. its suposed to be 60 and you only change it if the tickrate is more then 50 or something like that.

[Lazybender]

i only get choke when their is alot of action

[eXaXXion]

you can set sv_minupdaterate 0 and it won't matter as long as you set sv_maxupdaterate not 0 but the best value to use is 10 from my experience.

[Drocona]

Actually choke doesnt do much as long as you get more than 20 updates per sec from the server, when it goes below 20 you will start experiencing lag

[Lazybender]

yeah so should i have my minupdaterate 20

[Drocona]

Thats exactly waht I always do

[Lazybender]

ok
