• Optimal server settings?
    5 replies, posted
Hi. I'm trying to run a server with at least 50-60 full slots, however even on sandbox the server CPU hits 100% (3.4ghz cpu) with 34 users. Is there anything that can be done with regards to this to make a server more reliable or such? I've seen several servers run at least 50~ players without a too much of a noticeable lag. Thank you in advance for your tips.
Don't use too much addons :P Make sure you restrict all the stuff that players can use to slow down the server.
Yeah there are barely any addons. I'm not sure if there's something else done wrong. These are our settings: [code] rcon_password "" sv_password "" sv_allowupload 1 sv_allowdownload 1 fps_max "1000" host_framerate 100 decalfrequency 20 sv_lan 0 sv_region 255 phys_timescale 1 net_maxfilesize "128" //Bandwidth sv_minrate 20000 sv_maxrate 0 fps_max 600 //Logging sv_logfile 1 sv_logbans 1 sv_logecho 1 sv_rcon_banpenalty 15 sv_rcon_maxfailures 3 sv_rcon_minfailures 1 sv_rcon_minfailuretime 30 //Execute ban files exec banned_ip.cfg exec banned_user.cfg [/code]
Disable sv_allowupload and sv_allowdownload, limit sv_maxrate, lower sv_minrate, change fps_max to something closer to 128, and look into decreasing physics iterations etc.
It's all about the code you're running. A lower tickrate tends to help as well.
Thank you sirs I'll be back with results. :)
