What these settings mean

Quick reference for the 11 most important keys in this Blade Symphony config. Hover or tap any key to see what it controls — useful when you're tuning a server for the first time and don't want to grep through the upstream wiki.

Core

2 settings

hostname: Server name shown in the in-game browser. Keep it under 64 characters and avoid colour codes if you want clean Steam listings.
sv_password: Optional join password. Empty string means a public server.

Network

1 setting

sv_allowupload: 1 lets clients upload custom sprays. Disable to mitigate inappropriate content / exploits.

Gameplay

2 settings

mp_timelimit: Map time limit in minutes (TF2 / casual). 0 disables.
sv_cheats: Enables developer cheat commands like noclip and god. Always 0 in competitive — only flip on for practice / surf / KZ servers.

Voice

1 setting

sv_alltalk: 1 lets dead players hear the living and both teams hear each other. Off by default for competitive integrity.

RCON

1 setting

rcon_password: Remote console password. Use a long random string — Source RCON is unencrypted, so anyone sniffing your wire can grab it if it's weak.

Logging

4 settings

log: Master switch for server logging. `on` writes to logs/L<date>.log — required for SourceMod and stats.
sv_logfile: 1 writes log lines to disk in addition to stdout.
sv_logecho: 1 mirrors log lines to the server console — handy when tailing via screen / tmux.
sv_logbans: 1 logs ban / kick events. Always on for any moderated server.
