Server setup

[ixb]

HI,

I have a few questions about setting up servers, what's the difference with - and + before variables, and what variables should be the default?

Also what are the new tick rates? I heard they've gone to 66 128, can't remember the last one, but I see hosts with 1000 tick still is that fraud?

They have been "locked" to 66tick but it's possible to use any value you want if you know how to modify the binaries...

- is typically used for start up parameters or commands that can only be put into the startup command line. For instance -console.
+ is used to add commands to the startup line that can also be put in the server.cfg or executed in the console. Such as +rcon_password "potato" or +map de_dust2
