cg_damagePlum
Space-separated list of weapons that show floating damage numbers when you hit an enemy. Use weapon abbreviations (g = gauntlet, mg = machinegun, sg = shotgun, etc.). Leave empty to disable completely.
💡
Pro Tip
Use 'sg gl rl pg bfg' (Splash / Variable Damage Only). Constant plums on hitscan weapons like MG/LG/RG just create clutter. But seeing exact splash damage on rockets/grenades (15 vs 100) tells you instantly whether to push or disengage — this is why most pros keep only the variable-damage weapons enabled.
