What it does

Stops players from griefing hostage rescue maps by killing hostages. Once a player has killed this many hostages, the server kicks them. Lower it on public servers, or set 0 to never kick for hostage kills.

Good to know

  • Killing hostages also costs the attacker money.

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.
