Use a ConVar.
ConVar g_gametype("g_gametype", "1", FCVAR_REPLICATED | FCVAR_ARCHIVE,
"Selects the gametype.");
Then, to determine which game rules to run simply have InstallGameRules have
some logic so that it calls CreateGameRulesObjective depending on what you
want.

Good morning, everyone!
I'm sending this submission for our coder EmielRegis who currently can't
submit any mails:
Our team is new to the Source engine, yet we would like to create a basic
framework to deal with several different multiplayer gametypes and a
singleplayer campaign in addition.
Our coder EmielRegis is used to JKA's modified id engine which had a console
variable "g_gametype" with a numeric value to define what gametype a server
is running on.
The basic idea is to have different gametypes with different game mechanics
(such as CTF, TDM and Team Assault). EmielRegis couldn't find a good way of
dealing with that. He thought about a console variable, but can they be
transmitted between server and client? If so - how?
Of course, that variable should also be set from the game menu.
Any help on getting a better understanding of the given structures and how
to use them would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Darth.Hunter
