Warmup & Custom Settings

Our Warmup Config is applied immediately upon receiving a Match POST (after the server has booted) while awaiting player connections. We recommend keeping this untouched, as the current setup with a warmup deathmatch is designed to optimize the user experience.

The Live Config is initiated just before the start of a match when the players have been assigned to their teams. It is at this point that custom settings, if any, should be made.

To override any of these configs, place the following files on the server (can be done programatically via the API):

For changes during the warmup phase, use cfg/warmup_server.cfg
For changes when the game starts, use cfg/live_server.cfg

Check out our configs below to understand what is done by our API, and when your overrides will be executed.
