CS2 has both of these features and Sven-Coop not, both are SRCDS ran servers that supports console inputs and launch parameters. Any fixes for this or is are your sven coop instances just poorly implemented?
Reproduction Steps
For Sven-Coop go to instance console
Write e.g “changelevel hl_c02_a2” in it
Nothing happens at all
Now for CS2 (for comparison sake)
Goto Console
Write any gibberish and the console has no problems receiving it
Them goto CS2 Server Settings and it has a option to add extra launch parameters, Sven-Coop lacks that for some reason?
Reminder: Both games are SRCDS ran with startup parameters support and console input
Sven-Coop is not a source engine game, it’s based on the older GoldSource (HLDS) so not comparable to how AMP handle source engine games, they’re not similar at all. Sven-Coop is also a community configuration based on the Generic Module which has a different method for adjusting the startup flags.
Its configuration shows that it uses RCON for management. Does AMPs log show that it’s connected to the RCON okay? Also less of the passive agressive please
Where exactly is here AMP Log for RCON located? All I could find is the Audit Logs and there nothing in there about RCON sadly. The console is “semi-working”, with the problem that it is literally on read-only mode I cannot input anything in it. In the opposite the CS2 Console it working perfectly fine.
Also I am sorry for my passive aggressiveness, I just find this to be very basic, at least on the parameters matter I do think that both can be objectively compared, since the way you create a startup script with all parameters behind it is literally the same or almost identical (Speaking from experience when I hosted a gmod and sven-coop server without any panel and always started both of them via the same .sh startup script with parameters method).
Thanks you very much, here is the latest log with my attempt, at the very bottom you can see my futile attempts at changing the map level of the server and asking for the status of the server, but in the end everything is being ignored.

Yeah that is not working. I made a entirely new instance, started it up and it is not working. I removed the rcon_password line again, not working, I let the API generate and autofill a rcon password and double checked if it is placed inside server.cfg and yes is it, still not working, it is either my windows installation that is flawed (cs2 works tho?) or on AMP side that the sven coop installation is simply “faulty”. I gonna make a new AMP installation later on my linux server and if it has same issue just gonna give up on AMP entirely. You can keep the change tho, back on my passive aggressiveness no pum intended.
Those changes were to the console output and UDP Logger. It shouldn’t help with RCON. I’ll have to look it over. This was the first template I did a few years ago so no idea if it is good still.
