a couple server questions

[AmonSloane]

i'm sure these are noob questions, but oh well...

first, i tried to set g_gravity to something other than 800, but when i started the server, it printed in the console "broadcast: print "Server: g_gravity changed to 800\n"" (i had it at 600 in the server.cfg).  why would this be?

second question, is there a server.cfg somewhere that has every single variable in it so i can know what all i can work with?

[Oblivion]

go to (C:\Documents and Settings\ComputerName\Local Settings\Application Data\Tremulous\base) And open autogen.cfg and search for gravity in there and set it to 600.  Cause the autogen saves all the commands to the server.

ok i searched that file and didn't find any gravity setting in it.

so if autogen.cfg seems to have all the server settings in it, what's the point in setting them in server.cfg?  especially if autogen.cfg seems to override server.cfg.  i guess i just don't get exactly what autogen.cfg is and does.

It is the file containing your current settings -- mouse snsitivity, name, gamma, screensize, binds, and many more.

That's your chosen divinity's way of telling you not to change gravity settings because it instantly makes your server incredibly lame.

lol, i was only gonna change it just a little bit.
besides, i'm not really planning on hosting a big time server, its more just for my own experimentation and curiosity...

But Lak you have to admit when you turn gravity down by like increments of 25 is fun.

Well lets just say your autogen is like a server log now I said like a server log but it dont actually log the server actions, just that it saves a couple settings in there for some reason.  But you do need the server.cfg to run your server.

Sorry for double post!  But what mod are you running?

i had this problem, aswell as the buildpoints not changing,here's how i fixed it

in your base folder(the one with the .pk3's)
maprotation.cfg

add something like this

rotation1
{
  atcs
       {
   set g_gravity 700
   set g_humanBuildPoints 120
   set g_alienBuildPoints 120
        }
}

i'm not running any mods. i am using a mac also, by the way, i don't know if that changes much other than where files go and stuff.

hmm, that makes sense
