Console variables, or as usually abbreviated, cvars or convars are names of settings that are either entered via a game's or game server's console, or defined in a configuration file. Cvar definitions set the values of settings. E.g. the cvar bot_minplayers = 3 defines the number of players per team the bots on a Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force server should fill the teams up to three players each.
