Hi, I have a 8vs8 server. I am a little confused about the rate setting as there are many option. It is 100 tick and the tickrate usually fluctuates quite a lot, especially during moments of a lot of action like molotovs, CI and shooting. The tickrate can sometimes drop to 30 or below which can be a little annoying some times. What are the most optimal settings to maintain 100 tick or perhaps it is just a hardware issue or just the nature of high population server, ( i had played in servers such as 10v10 versus server and 18 player coop server, the tickrate was very good).

My rate settings

PHP Code:

sm_cvar sv_minrate 5000                    
sm_cvar sv_maxrate 100000                    
sm_cvar sv_minupdaterate 10                  
sm_cvar sv_maxupdaterate 100                  
sm_cvar sv_mincmdrate 0                    
sm_cvar sv_maxcmdrate 100                    
sm_cvar sv_client_min_interp_ratio -1         
sm_cvar sv_client_max_interp_ratio 5          
sm_cvar nb_update_frequency 0.065       
sm_cvar net_splitpacket_maxrate 50000    
sm_cvar net_splitrate 1
sm_cvar fps_max 0 


Can someone reccommend some good setting please, I use translator so it can be hard for me to understand documentation

For some reason these commands make my server not appear in the list of servers in the steam group. Just sharing because someone might be going through the same thing as me.
