How to change the bomb timer in CS 1.6

Type mp_c4timer 35 in the server console and a planted bomb explodes after 35 seconds, from the next round. The default is 45.

mp_c4timer

Seconds between the bomb being planted and it exploding.

mp_c4timer <seconds>

Examples

mp_c4timer 35

Faster bomb, common in competitive configs.

mp_c4timer 45

Restore the default.

Arguments

secondsRequired
Bomb timer, from 10 to 90.

What it does

Controls how long the Counter-Terrorists have to defuse the planted C4. A defuse kit halves the defuse time but not this timer, so short timers make defusing without a kit risky. Takes effect from the next round.

Good to know

  • The game keeps the value between 10 and 90.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to cstrike/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS 1.6 server first.
