Hello, I had a question about the server. If I press the Y button on my keyboard, everyone can see my chat, and if I press the U button, only the team I'm in can see my chat. Is this true? Or does it really matter which button I press to write my chat? I would appreciate it if you could answer. Is this true? And if so, is it only for your server or for all servers? I would appreciate it if you could answer.
Yes, your understanding is correct, and this applies to all CS 1.6 servers, not just ours.
Here’s how it works in Counter-Strike 1.6:
Y key: Opens public chat — everyone on the server (both teams and spectators) can see your message.
U key: Opens team chat — only your current team (Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist) can see your message.
This is a default game behavior in CS 1.6 and is not specific to any one server. Server admins can add plugins that change or enhance chat functionality, but unless that’s done intentionally, the default behavior always applies
