Changing the team kill settings for an Insurgency: Sandstorm server can drastically affect how players approach gameplay. By setting team kill penalties low, players will be more willing to take risks that could harm teammates, while a stricter ruleset can help discourage the behavior. Other settings, such as player voting, can also help reduce team killing by removing problematic players from the server.
