ConVar's marked FCVAR_REPLICATED are only able to be changed on the server
(by an admin), and are automatically networked to the client .  That's
probably what you're looking for.  Have a search in the HL2DM SDK for
mp_teamplay.

RE: [hlcoders] ConVar question

[Ben Everett]

Yes, ConVar's can be sent between the client and server... but why send
something that is explicitly server-side to the client? You can have the
client notified of ConVar changes by FCVAR_NOTIFY.

Hey,

I'm still a noobie with Source engine and I got a question - I want to
have some certain way of setting the gametype (something like g_gametype
cvar in JKA, if you know what I mean) and I can't find a good way of
dealing with that. I thought about a ConVar, but can they be transmitted
between server and client? If so, how to do that? BTW, I want it to be
changeable in the menu obviously, if it's more complicated.

Thanks in advance.
