Does anyone know what the "rate" values represent when you do a rcon status? Here's what I'm talking about. When you send a rcon status command to your server you get a table of values for each player. What do the numbers in the last column of that table (labled "rate") represent? It's the column to the right of "qport".

It's not the bit rate is it? The one that's supposed to be set by sv_maxRate??

BTW you get the same kind of "rate" value when you do a dumpuser too.
Anybody know what those number means?

you must be talking about the rate or the max rate of the client
its usally ranging from 5000 to 30000
yes I believe that is there max rate that is why it is important for you to set or limit your max rate on your server usually ranging from 8000-12000
or unless you dont want to set one and you can set it to 0, most hosting will only allow you a certain amount anyway.
