I've been an admin on a server for a while and every once in a while I start an event where I bring every person on the server to the middle of the map, blind them and make them fight. The command I use to blind the server is: sm_blind @all 1000

I've tried lower values but they are very inconsistent. Can anybody give me the full explanation on how this command works and how the values are processed? I can't find anything else online

As an extra, how do I change between blind modes? There's 2 types of blinds, full and half. I found out about them while using the blind from the admin menu, but I can't see any way of specifying types while manually typing commands

Use a value between 0-255.

How are the values processed though? 10 doesn't do anything, so it can't be seconds. So maybe 10 counts as 1.0 seconds instead of 10 seconds? And 100 is read as 10.0 and so on?

The value determines how blind the player will be.

0 = not blind (off/normal)
255 = fully blind

Since 10 is closer to 0, you'll hardly notice any difference when using that value. Try something like 200.

You mentioned that the Blind menu gives you two options: Fully Blind and Half Blind
These are the values they represent:

Fully Blind = 255
Half Blind = 240

PHP Code:

AddTranslatedMenuItem(menu, "255", "Fully blind", client);
AddTranslatedMenuItem(menu, "240", "Half blind", client);
AddTranslatedMenuItem(menu, "0", "No blind", client);
