I want to add an option, such as “-zone 8192” to the start command for my HalfLife server. How do I do this?
At the top level of your home directory is a file called customer_server_settings. Open this file in your favorite text editor and find the following option (it’s near the bottom): ## User-Defined Command Line Opions ## USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!! MISUSE WILL BREAK YOUR SERVER!!! ## Enter any command line options here, and keep them WITHIN the quotes… ## They will be appended EXACTLY AS ## TYPED to the hlds_run command. You probably don’t need to put anything ## here, and if you do, you should already know exactly what you need… ## If you don’t, then leave this option blank… ## USER_COMMANDLINE_OPTIONS=”-option1 value1 -option2 value2″ Add your command line options (and me sure they stay within the quotes!!) and restart your server. If you do not see the USER_COMMANDLINE_OPTIONS=” ” line, then add it, and the options you define will be appended at the end of hlds_run script EXACTLY as you defined them, so make sure they are correct or you could break your server!
