1. Those rates are destructive in CS:Source currently. Do some testing
on different ticrate servers, it's unlikely you will find a server
that will not display high choke (in net_channels) with that cmdrate.
On the other hand, the range 30-70 tend to offer far more reliable
communication. See rates info below.
2. Mani admin plugin has an unfortunate ma_cexec function which allows
you to send console commands to remote clients. It would be entirely
possible to alter peoples rates with this (I have done so in
assistance many times). IMHO however this ability is a massive
security risk and also has the potential for severe abuse. For
example, what happens if you have a batch:
cexecdos.cfg{
ma_cexec_all host_writeconfig autoexec.cfg;
exec cexecdos
}
And thats without finding any exlpoitable cvars or console functions,
but there's the possibility of sending full unicode strings here, any
buffer failures could be potentially very destrcutive on a server with
a blackhat admin.
3. Rates, AGAIN:
Valve said 256Bytes is roughly the max size of a game-packet (alhtough
I have to admit, I can no longer find the page where, so this may be
entirely wrong :-s).
updaterate at 80 for 20 players is thus roughly 400KBytes per second
that's your server load.
client load is 256*80 = 20480 or 20KBytes per second - pretty much all
useable of a 256kbps ADSL upload. The minrate for this should be 20480
Bytes per second.please learn to calculate rates, it's not that hard. cmdrate 101 and updaterate 101 are not the be all and end all.
