But how frequently server calculates ‘information about position of players, who died, and all that stuff’ by its own?

The server sends messages to the clients at a regular interval with information about position of players, who died, and all that stuff. The higher FPS your server has, the more messages it will be able to send out about peoples' positions. This is not the same as a client's FPS. The client fps can be higher since the game does some fancy math to smooth the data out, and there are lots of things that happen on the client and not the server. However, if the FPS is really low, you'll still get some bad-looking behavior since the client will not get as much info about where the players are moving. --Gavin On Thu, Aug 16, 2012 at 4:41 PM, Dmitriy Bobrovskiy <[email protected]> wrote: No one at this time hasn’t give an explanation what fps does.

But I use a FPS Booster plugin. so the sys_ticrate will auto adjust with cpu usage. Yes sys_ticrate does affect the system globally mm_system (sleep_timer/s ) 1ms max 1000 fps 2ms max 500fps 3ms max 333fps 4ms max 250fps 10ms max 100fps i understand all of this. I just have a hard time elaborating it in writing. Lorne M. a.k.a.
