Hi BusT! The reason why you are lagging can be alot of things. I cant give you an answer for that. But you should check these things:

  • Many races?
  • Alot of unnecessary files such as skins,addons etc.
  • Did you put a tickrate on your server that your upload speed can't handle?

If nothing of this caused this lag I don't know what it might be.

Thanks, FrAg.

Are you running a dedicated server?

Then the tickrate will be set by going
Properties->Startoptions-> -tickrate <Tickrate>

Warning!
Dont adjust the tickrate to as much as your upload speed can't handle!

----

Try to reinstall the whole server!

A WCS cannot run properly as a dedicated server (i mean hosted at home)...
Also having a lot of races MAY lag.

Guy has typical problem which might have many sources, but your replies dissapointed me.
I afraid i can't answer what's wrong but here are some facts:

Yes this can help.

They have nothing to do with "lags"
If i'm right he means lags as high ping / spiky

Quote
Dont adjust the tickrate to as much as your upload speed can't handle!

Tickrate has almost nothing to do with bandwidth ( upload speed)
Though tickrate 100 takes nearly twice more CPU than 66.
It's well known that 33, 66 are standart hl2 engine tickrates while 100 is overloading and can easely cause unstability (spikes/crashes) especially in combination with WCS.

Dreams.
Any computer can be in a role of "server" and when u said "can't be hosted at home", should he move his PC outdoors in order to host?  ;D

P.S.
I would recommend:
checking CPU usage (if it overloads here is the reason)

If you run SRCDS on same PC where u play or run many other programs i will recommand giving SRCDS process higher priority  (can be done in windows taskmanager window)

Turn on network graph and make sure there are no package loss

And u better explain what is "lag" in your situation, this will help debugging.

No Stinky you are right, you can host a server at home. What i meant is you can't host a server on the PC on which you play/surf/download stuff... :)

Cause you would have problems with bandwidth, with ram, with CPU?  ???

Not at all as long as your CPU is not 133 mhz
