This option allows modifying the startup arguments and other details to run a custom HLDS based game on the panel, substituting the official Valve engine binaries with the ReHLDS binaries.
This is for older games like CS 1.6 (default game) and other servers that still run on the older HLDS server under id 90
ReHLDS is a reverse engineered build of the original HLDS (build 6152/6153), and provides a number of fixes and improvements over the vanilla engine files, while remaining compatible with vanilla clients.
