In version 1.13 or 1.14 beta, civclient simplies starting everything, but I would like to set various parameters of a game such as xsize, ysize, savename, savename, etc.    I launched civserver ( 1.13 or 1.14 beta) and setted various parameters , but civclient ignores them.  Does anyone knows how one can change parameters.

I assume you are using the win32 client, in which civclient 
automatically launches civserver (other clients do not yet have this 
feature).

Once you connect to the server, you should be able to give the same 
server commands through the command line, with a preceeding /.  So "/set 
xsize 100" would be a command.  I assume that the server has given you 
sufficient permissions to do this (but it might not, as this is a 
security risk).

You should also still be able to launch the civserver manually, and 
connect to it with civclient.
