Frequently Asked Questions

How do I check installed plugins?

Use the following command in console after RCON authentication:

bash
fake_rcon css_plugins list
Can I request additional plugins?

Pro servers: Submit plugin requests through the support panel. Requests are reviewed for compatibility and security.

Free servers: Limited to the plugins listed in the Free column above.

What is a GSLT and why is it needed?
