ctf_flagtimeout
Usage: ctf_flagtimeout (#)
This cvar determines how long it takes for a flag to be automatically returned to its pedestal. To timeout, the flag must be off its pedestal and not be held by a player.
The value is measured in seconds
If this cvar is set to 0, the flag will never be returned in a timeout. This should only be used on maps with no places that the flag can get stuck permanently (voids, lava pits, etc). Use with caution.
NOTE: It is also worth mentioning that changing the value while a flag is dropped will not affect the flag until it is picked up and dropped again
ctf_flagathometoscore
Usage: ctf_flagathometoscore (0-1)
This cvar determines what conditions a team can score under. If set to 0, a team can score by passing the enemy flag over their pedestal regardless of their own flag's current position. If set to 1 (default), a team's flag must be on their pedestal to score.
ctf_manualreturn
Usage: ctf_manualreturn (0-1)
This cvar changes the behavior of how a flag is returned by a player. If set to 0 (default), simply touching your own flag away from its pedestal will return it automatically and instantly.
If set to 1, a player will be required to manually return their flag to their pedestal. Note that under these conditions, a player can carry both their own flag and the enemy flag at the same time.
