====== Server ======
The crossfire server is the heart of the game. Crossfire is designed around a central [[:server]] with each [[:client]] being able to log in and separately interact with the crossfire world. Servers can be classified by the type of source code they run:
  * tag - these servers are running the latest stable release of crossfire
  * [[:trunk]] - these servers are running the latest development release of crossfire
  * branch - these servers are running a non-standard version of crossfire

Server hosts may also choose to modify certain aspects of the game to suit their preference. 
  * [[:characters:score|Experience curve]] - A popular modification is to the experience curve and experience loss upon [[:combat#Death & Experience|death]] to make a particular [[:server]] more or less challenging. 
  * tickrate - Currently by default all servers run a tickrate of 120ms between ticks, or, 8.33 ticks per second. The tickrate is used to determine many in game properties like the time, movement and attack speed, grace and sp regeneration and food consumption.
  * [[:Maps]] - Maps may be added or removed from particular servers to improve the in game experience.
