I'd like to clean up a few of my game configs so the information is neatly stored in columns. Each line has something like:
somegamevar "0" // This here explains the stuff on the left
anothervar 9 // Sometimes the value is not in doublequotes
When a file is not neatly columned, it can get messy so we spend a lot of time in an editor tabbing. Here is a section of one of the files.
mp_death_drop_defuser "1" // Drop defuser on player death
mp_death_drop_grenade "2" // Which grenade to drop on player death: 0=none, 1=best, 2=current or best

sv_maxrate "0" // min. 0.000000 max. 30000.000000 replicated Max bandwidth rate allowed on server, 0 == unlimited
column -t would be great if the third column wasn't there but that third column is important.
So this is the expected outcome:
Column 1 and 2 clearing each other by a few spaces.
Column 3 starting at the 70th character.
sv_alltalk "0" // Players can hear all other players voice communication, no team restrictions
sv_alternateticks "0" // If set, server only simulates entities on even numbered ticks.
sv_cheats "0" // Allow cheats on server
sv_clockcorrection_msecs "15" // The server tries to keep each players m_nTickBase withing this many msecs of the server absolute tickcount
sv_consistency "0" // Whether the server enforces file consistency for critical files
sv_contact "0" // Contact email for server sysop
sv_damage_print_enable "1" // Turn this off to disable the players damage feed in the console after getting killed.
sv_dc_friends_reqd "0" // Set this to 0 to allow direct connects to a game in progress even if no presents
sv_deadtalk "1" // Dead players can speak (voice, text) to the living
sv_forcepreload "0" // Force server side preloading.
sv_friction "4.8" // World friction.
sv_full_alltalk "0" // Any player (including Spectator team) can speak to any other player
sv_gameinstructor_disable "1" // Force all clients to disable their game instructors.
sv_ignoregrenaderadio "0" // Turn off Fire in the hole messages
sv_kick_players_with_cooldown 0 // (0: do not kick; 1: kick Untrusted players; 2: kick players with any cooldown)
sv_kick_ban_duration "0" // How long should a kick ban from the server should last (in minutes)
sv_lan "0" // Server is a lan server ( no heartbeat, no authentication, no non-class C addresses )
sv_log_onefile "0" // Log server information to only one file.
sv_logbans "1" // Log server bans in the server logs.
sv_logecho "1" // Echo log information to the console.
sv_logfile "1" // Log server information in the log file.
sv_logflush "0" // Flush the log file to disk on each write (slow).
sv_logsdir "logfiles" // Folder in the game directory where server logs will be stored.
sv_maxrate "0" // min. 0.000000 max. 30000.000000 replicated Max bandwidth rate allowed on server, 0 == unlimited
As you can see above, column 1 and 2 are close to each other and column 3 is neatly to the right starting at the 70th column.

Original Answer:
This will start the 3rd column at character position 60 as you asked for:
awk '
s = index($0,"//") {
hd = substr($0,1,s-1)
sub(/[[:space:]]+$/,"",hd)
$0 = sprintf("%-59s%s",hd,substr($0,s))
}
1' file
e.g. given this input:
$ cat file
mp_death_drop_defuser "1" // Drop defuser on player death
