Callvote Reference

Ratmod servers have a variety of callvotes to change game modes or turn on/off features.

Some ratmod servers are limited to one game type. "Allmodes" and "Try Hard" servers have all game types built in. This makes it possible to have one server rather than a multitude.

Any game mode or option toggle is done with a callvote. Use the game console with these commands:

  • \cv <option>
  • \cv custom <mode or option>

Note

Please note that not all game modes / options are available on all ratmod servers.

If you want to see a list of available call votes on a server, use the \cv or \cv custom commands with no arguments.

Since custom votes are configured differently on any given server, please check in the server for custom votes with \cv custom.
