How to change swim acceleration in CS 1.6

Type sv_wateraccelerate 10 in the server console to set how fast players speed up underwater. Higher feels more responsive; 10 is default.

sv_wateraccelerate

Sets how quickly players speed up when swimming.

sv_wateraccelerate <value>

Examples

sv_wateraccelerate 10

Default value.

Arguments

valueRequired
Water acceleration factor. 10 is the default.

What it does

Like sv_accelerate, but for movement under water. Higher values make swimming more responsive. The default suits all standard maps.

Good to know

  • Changes are announced to players in chat because the cvar has the server-notify flag.

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.
