Custom Configuration File

A custom config file that allows you to change some hard-coded things in the bot code.

It’s located in addons/yapb/conf/custom.cfg.

Note

All changes to this file take effect only on server restart.

Note

Keys may live either inside their section (as in the shipped config) or at the root level of the file – both layouts are accepted.

Available Settings

Setting	Description
C4ModelName	Sets a custom name for the C4 model, for servers that replace the C4 model with their own. By default it’s c4.mdl (the models/path is omitted), so if you need to use models/mybomb/mybomb.mdl, you should specify mybomb/mybomb.mdl.
AMXParachuteCvar	Sets a custom CVAR name for parachute handling. There are various plugins that handle parachutes (AMX Parachute, AMX Parachute Lite, etc.), you can specify the needed CVAR here.
CustomCSDMSpawnPoint	Sets a custom spawn point classname for CSDM mods that add custom spawn points other than info_player_start and info_player_deathmatch. So bots will be able to join the game without default spawn entities.
CSDMDetectCvar	Sets a CVAR to detect the CSDM mod if it is activated in the game.
ZMDetectCvar	Sets a CVAR to detect the Zombie mod.
ZMDelayCvar	Sets a CVAR that deals with time before any game mode starts.
ZMInfectedTeam	Determines the team on which infected players are on. Valid values: T, CT.
EnableFakeBotFeatures	Decides if fake features (like a fake time, fake SID (avatar), fakeping) should be enabled within bot code on a dedicated server. By default it’s off. To enable it you should provide a variable with: i'm confident for what i'm doing as the value. Its value doesn’t affect the listen server.
CheckConnectivityHost	Specifies the hostname the bot will attempt to connect to for checking network availability and enabling graph download/upload features. An optional :port suffix is supported (default 80), e.g. raw.githubusercontent.com:443.
DisableLogFile	Disables any writing activity to log files. All errors and warnings are just sent to the server console.
DisableSpawnControl	Disables enforcement of player spawn limits during bot creation and quota management, allowing the use of custom spawn editors.
UnlockThinkFPS	Allows to control the bot’s think rate (tick rate) with the yb_think_fps CVAR. By default the bot’s tick rate is locked to the internal value, and yb_think_fps is ignored.

Mode Walls

The ModeWalls section supports map-restricting plugins (e.g. AMXX “Mode 2x2”), which seal off parts of the map with wall entities when online is low.

Setting	Description
ModeWallClassname	Classname of the wall entities the plugin spawns (default test_effect). Bots treat entities with this classname and solid bbox as blockers for pathfinding.

Graph Database Endpoints

The GraphDatabase section holds the endpoints behind the @aliases of the yb_graph_url / yb_graph_url_upload CVARs (see CVARs). Change them here to relocate the graph database without rebuilding the bot.

Setting	Description
GraphGithubDownload	Download base behind @github of yb_graph_url (CDN raw over https).
GraphRussiaDownload	Download base behind @russia of yb_graph_url (sourcecraft over https).
GraphWorkersUpload	Upload base behind @workers of yb_graph_url_upload (cloudflare worker over https).
GraphRussiaWorker	Upload base behind @russia of yb_graph_url_upload (yandex worker copy over https).
GraphLegacyBase	Base behind @http / @legacy (legacy plain http server).
GraphLegacyUpload	Upload base used as a no-TLS fallback for @workers and @russia.

Downloads append graph/<map>.graph to the base URL; uploads POST the graph file to the base URL as-is. Automatic collection is only available over https.
