This will define the number of frames the server should calculate every second. A low framerate will make things easier for your server and players will require less bandwidth. A high framerate however will make the game smoother. Almost all the servers on the Internet run at 12 or 14 frames per second.-idleRunIf you want more than 20 frames per second, you have to disable the safety-option. Just add
+ignore20MaxFPSto the serveroptions.
By default the server will only start calculating frames when a human player join, so the server will stay dorment when nobody is using it. If you turn on idleRun, the server will keep on calculating frames. This means the fuelcells will fuel up and the bots keep playing.-reportMeta-idleRun means turn ON idleRun.
+idleRun means turn OFF idleRun.
By default, the server will try to contact the metaserver to report your server. Other players can then see your address so they can join your server.

All the other options can be found here or in ServerOpts.txt, which can be found in your Xpilot-directory.-reportMeta means turn ON reportMeta. Other players can see your server now.
+reportMeta means turn OFF reportMeta. Other players can't see your server now.
