In Battlefield 3, servers are divided into 4 categories: Custom, Normal, Hardcore, and Inf-Only.
In Basic mode, we already have a function that allows you to quickly switch settings.
In Advanced mode, you need to set the corresponding commands in the file Startup.txt.
The following table shows which settings are necessary for a server to be assigned to a specific category on the Battlelog.

| vars.autoBalance | true | true | true |
| vars.roundStartPlayerCount | - | - | - |
| vars.roundRestartPlayerCount | - | - | - |
| vars.friendlyFire | false | true | false |
| vars.regenerateHealth | - | - | - |
| vars.killCam | true | false | true |
