 +===== Using the Console ===== 
 +The console should be visible upon startup of the game. It can be hidden/shown by pressing the tilde or **`**/**~** key. Sometimes the console can glitch a bit and can only be closed by pressing the tilde key, or by clicking the **x** in the top right corner. It can also freeze the game, but can usually be unfrozen by opening and closing the console again.  
 + 
 +To issue a command, enable the console and type the basic format: 
 +<code><command or variable> <value></code> 
 +so for example.. 
 +<code>cl_showpos 1 
 +bind "MWHEELDOWN" "+jump" 
 +</code> 
 +A list of all commands can be found by typing //cmd// into the console.
