Server Configuration

On this page we will put a server.cfg up on this page to show the settings you can have in it. There are explanations on each variable on why it may be done. Remember to go to your ZPS Server Directory and replace the contents in it with this example file and tailor it's custom parts to your own liking.

//----------------------------------//
//----- START GENERAL SETTINGS -----//
//----------------------------------//

// Server hostname.
hostname "ZPS Server"

//Map Time
mp_timelimit 30

// NOTE: currently, this is disabled due to reserve slots
// Overrides the max players reported to prospective clients
sv_visiblemaxplayers 24

// Your server password. A pair of double quotes means it is not set and anyone can join.
//sv_password ""

// 0 = anywhere
// 1 = anywhere listed in the white list

// Is the server pausable?
// 0 = no
// 1 = yes.
sv_pausable 0

// Type of server being run.
// 0 = internet 
// 1 = lan.
sv_lan 0

// This tells us if the server enforces consistency for critical files.

//================ START NOTE ================//
// Do NOT change this value to anything but   //

// kicker decide on what to do with them      //
// - Kana                                  //

//----- START BANDWIDTH RATE SETTINGS -----//
//-----------------------------------------//

// DEPRECIATED: Valve has removed this and, as a result, is no longer necessary. It also cuts the costs of server dramatically.
// Limits the maximum FPS someone can have. Leave it at 0, for unlimited (we have a 500 fps server).

sv_mincmdrate 30

// This is the maximum rate that all packets are split.
// Valve default is 15000.
// This should be the same rate as the sv_maxrate as you should be splitting packets as fast as you send/recieve them.
