SV_Frame

in netQuake its at _host_frame

so in QW maybe its near cl_maxfps...

or host_frametime ?

sys_mintic defaults to 0.013 (one tic every 13 milliseconds for about 76 fps so its smooth enough at 72).
That's the server physics rate limiter.
Its checked in... sv_phys.c
This doesn't apply to player physics.

server->client packets are sent with no artificial waiting as soon as the server receives a packet. select is used only to reduce cpu load on an idle server, without unconditionally sleeping. Its timeout will keep the qc ticking over at a much reduced rate.

So after further reading and testing, it looks like there is no 10Hz limit in Quake World.

As Spike mentionned, there is a limit for the physic simulation but players movements are unaffected.

So the Server sends message to a client if:

- A message was received from this client
- The client rate is not "chocked" via a client parameter.

That's mostly how flow control is performed.
