CSS Server tick

Hi guys,


Just a quick question. What tick rate are the IS servers running? 33, 66, or 100 tick? Or do they vary between servers?

Do they IS servers lock the CVARS based on the connection and connection rates between the players and the servers?

Regards

Rate : 7500 min 20000 max
cmd  : 30 - 66 (not sure about the min, it possibly could be lower)
upd  : 30 - 66

Even though, any one with a 512kbps line should have 12500 min rate and 30 40 min cmd and updaterate.

Though I think the minimum rates are set lower for the people with wireless and ISDN (if that fossil still exists).

Eitherway, the rates are kind of a problem on the servers due to alot of people not even being aware of their own rates or the rates as a whole, and so there are other players who refuse to change their rates. IT is a big hastle.

Wireless - 10000 33 33
DSL (1meg+) - 12500 to 20000 and 66  66

cl_interp should only be used if a players latency is over 100 ping or so.. It helps configure the lag with the hitreg.


So thefore, the tick's max is 66 and min is 30+-. It all depends on the players set rates and internet connection.

Re: CSS Server tick

Wasn't the tickrate removed entirely a while back? Everything runs at 66 now?

Enforcing rates is not a trivial thing to do, but why not autokick people for too much choke/loss, the same way you kick for high pings?
