The advantages of using variables instead of seeking the value of a cvar come into its own when seeking the value for a client/player, as you cannot get the value of a cvar for a client/player without using a menu. Hence, getting a client/player variable is the done thing. I typically turn all cvars into variables and seek the value of variables habitually as it is more sure-fire.Anyway for my own info, is there any advantage of setting a cvar over variables?
