Cleaned output

6 legacy lines removed.

8

// Network commands that no longer tune CS2

// Current settings

Conservative by design

The doctor only removes commands it classifies as legacy or ineffective. Unrecognised commands remain visible so a custom bind or server-specific line is never silently lost.

Test the cleaned config

Put the downloaded file in your CS2 cfg folder, run it in a local practice session, then adjust one setting at a time. A cleaner config is not a promise of more FPS.
