Game Plugin Configuration ​

The plugin configuration file lives under your runtime's addons directory, and the two runtimes use different file names and different formats:

  • SwiftlyS2: <server_path>/game/csgo/addons/swiftlys2/configs/plugins/FiveStack/config.jsonc
  • CounterStrikeSharp: <server_path>/game/csgo/addons/counterstrikesharp/configs/plugins/FiveStack/FiveStack.json

The easiest way to get the config is from the panel: open your dedicated server's page, go to the Settings tab, and under Server Plugin Config pick your runtime and press Show Config. It generates the file contents, including the server's API password, in the correct format for the selected runtime, ready to copy and paste. The Settings tab is administrator-only.

Community servers use a different plugin

This page is for the match plugin, which a Ranked Server runs. A community server (a Valve preset) runs the Player Management plugin instead, with its own config file.

SwiftlyS2 (config.jsonc) ​

SwiftlyS2 reads the settings from a FiveStack section inside config.jsonc:

jsonc
{
  "FiveStack": {
    "WS_DOMAIN": "wss://ws.5stack.gg",
    "API_DOMAIN": "https://api.5stack.gg",
    "RELAY_DOMAIN": "https://tv.5stack.gg",
    "DEMOS_DOMAIN": "https://demos.5stack.gg",
    "SERVER_ID": "<your-server-id>",
    "SERVER_API_PASSWORD": "<your-server-api-password>",
  },
}

CounterStrikeSharp (FiveStack.json) ​

CounterStrikeSharp reads the same settings as a flat object from FiveStack.json:

json
{
  "WS_DOMAIN": "wss://ws.5stack.gg",
  "API_DOMAIN": "https://api.5stack.gg",
  "RELAY_DOMAIN": "https://tv.5stack.gg",
  "DEMOS_DOMAIN": "https://demos.5stack.gg",
  "SERVER_ID": "<your-server-id>",
  "SERVER_API_PASSWORD": "<your-server-api-password>"
}

TIP

Environment variables with the same names (SERVER_ID, SERVER_API_PASSWORD, etc.) take precedence over the config file in both runtimes. If you run the server via the container. You can configure it entirely through environment variables instead.

Match Configuration Files ​

Once the plugin has been added. It will download any of the following configuration files that are missing and store them in the cfg directory at <game-directory>/csgo/cfg:

  • 5stack.competitive.cfg
  • 5stack.wingman.cfg
  • 5stack.duel.cfg
  • 5stack.rush.cfg
  • 5stack.lan.cfg
  • 5stack.warmup.cfg
  • 5stack.knife.cfg

The match type's config (competitive, wingman, duel or rush) is executed first, then the LAN config on a LAN region, then the layers the panel sends, such as the Global config, game plugin cvars and the game mode's cvars. Warmup and the knife round exec their own configs on top.

These configs can be modified to suit your needs. A file that already exists is never downloaded again.
