Hi,

I'm trying to use the console command for difficulty level on my dedicated server (including the command in the dedicated server cfg file) - gam_bCustomizeDifficulty. I can get the command to set a value but when I join the server, the difficulty still appears as "Normal".

Couple of questions:
1) Is that the correct command?
2) Anyone have the enumeration of the difficulty level values?

I've tried 1,2,3,4,5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and they all came back "Normal" and I am sure it is loading the config file because I had the value set wrong and it errored on starting the dedicated server (I originally set it gam_bCustomizeDifficulty "1" but now use gam_bCustomizeDifficulty = "1" and the console doesn't whinge about it).

Thanks,
Shiv

All you need to set up your dedicated server is Angelo's Server GUI (http://serioussam.net/?page=files&p1=3).

Anyway,

1) I think the variable you are looking for is gam_gdDifficulty .
2) AFAIK valid values are the numbers 0,1,...,5 where 0 represents 'Tourist' and 5 'Mental' as well as the difficulty names starting with a capital letter..Tourist, Easy...not sure tho
