^ Basically the topic. Sometimes damage-registration behaves really weird in this game.

More often than not I shoot rockets where the splash hits an enemy on my screen without registering any damage on the actual server.
This is quite annoying ,especially since I play roamer and have to make every rocket count.

I know that for example certain cl_interp values are more optimal for different classes since hitscan and projectile weapons don’t behave the same.
Maybe it also variates depending on ones connection?
I really have no idea,complete beginner when it comes to this type of stuff.

Just wanted to ask you how to figure out ones optimal rates. Like,is there a fixed standard for everything or maybe a formula to figure stuff out?

As of right now I’m using these rates (don’t know if standard or modified by the cfg that I downloaded):

cl_interp 0.015200
cl_interp_ratio 1
cl_updaterate 67
cl_cmdrate 67
rate 30000

And my internet-connection in case it’s relevant for anything:

Thanks in advance for the answers :D

no wonder you don’t hit anything with THOSE rates

Very-helpful-comment-detector off the limits.

umm yeah,it’s all the rates fault… (._)(._) (_.)(_.) *whistle*

Quoted from TviQ

avg ping? ~30-45ish? use 60k rate 0.02 interp 67 67 gg no re

ty,gonna try using that from now on

It seems like my downloaded cfg added some extra modifications and I have no idea wtf they do xD Anyways,I changed the stuff that tviq suggested and it now looks like this:

cl_cmdrate 67
cl_interp 0.02
cl_interp_ratio 1
cl_lagcompensation 1
cl_pred_optimize 2
cl_smooth 0
cl_smoothtime 0.01
cl_updaterate 67
rate 60000

Anything to still change?
