The BZFlag Server (BZFS) allows administrators to configure a large number of gameplay and configuration settings from within the client.  The /set command in-game allows users with the appropriate permissions to change these values.  These may also be known as BZDB variables and "/set variables" depending on who you speak with.

Unless otherwise noted, time values are measured in seconds, distances in [[world units]], and speeds in [[world units]] per second.
