| -culture=en | You can also directly override the language by using this commandline |

| -noantispeedhack | Anti speedhack detection is now enabled by default ā to disable it, use this server commandline |

I noticed on the linked page it is listed as “server” however it gives many client only options.
Do you think the pages should be merged for server and client and just specify what’s specific to the server, what’s specific to the client and anything different between the two?
