Is there no intention to change this? This will only fuel the anger against
the changes if the new system proves to be un-flexible.
Particularly misleading is the direction you are taking when the original
wiki documentation amended by "ngamache" on 10th May said:
"server.cfg
This file has been significantly depreciated with CS:GO. It is no
longer used as the primary way of configuring the convars of the server.
Certain convars, like mp_timelimit, are not even available through the
console, as they are now loaded using a different file (see gamemodes.txt
below)."
So which is it? Use a cfg file as the primary cvar configuration or not?
There is no consistency to where this is going if gamemode files cannot be
reloaded.
Whilst you typically would not expect to change cvars during server
operation on paper, the amount of times you do is actually quite surprising.
If for example in the midst of playing with friends they propose a change, I
do not expect to have to reload the server and have them all reconnect (and
lose any public people). Equally I do not expect to make duplicate bodge
edits to secondary cfg files.

Nick

Gamemodes.txt does not reload.
If you need to switch between sets of cvars while the server is running then
I recommend putting them in a cfg instead.

In other source games if you make edits to server.cfg the changes are parsed
and set when the server changes maps. This doesn't appear to be the case
with gamemodes_server.txt in CS:GO. Is there anyway to manually reload
cvars from this file without rebooting the server?
