- Reserved Slots, Basic Bans
- And more (see `etc/run.sh` for full list)

## Setup & Usage

### Prerequisites

- Docker
- Docker Compose
- ~10GB disk space for server files

### Environment Variables

Configure in `docker-compose.yaml` or `.env` file:

```yaml
# Server Settings
METAMOD_VERSION: "1.12"      # MetaMod:Source version
SOURCEMOD_VERSION: "1.12"    # SourceMod version
SRCDS_PORT: 27015           # Server port
SRCDS_MAXPLAYERS: 32        # Max player slots
SRCDS_STARTMAP: "surf_ski_2" # Starting map
SRCDS_IP: "0.0.0.0"         # Bind IP address

# Admin Configuration (comma-separated Steam IDs)
SRCDS_ADMINS: "STEAM_1:0:12345678,STEAM_1:1:87654321"
```

**Admin Steam ID Format:**
- Use `STEAM_1:Y:XXXXXX` format (recommended)
- Or `[U:1:XXXXXX]` format (modern SteamID3)
- Find your Steam ID in-game with `status` command
- Or use https://steamid.io/

### Building & Running

```bash
# Build the container
docker-compose build

# Start the server
docker-compose up -d

# View logs
docker-compose logs -f cssds

# Restart the server
docker-compose restart cssds

# Stop the server
docker-compose down
```

### Update Server Files

The server installation is persistent - game files are only downloaded on first run. To force an update:

```bash
# Update CSS game files
docker-compose run cssds bash ./etc/run.sh --update-cssds
```

Or modify the environment to skip updates by default (already configured):
- Default: Updates are **skipped** for faster restarts
- Use `--update-cssds` flag to force updates

### Database Configuration

The server uses **SQLite by default** (no separate database needed):
- Database file: `addons/sourcemod/data/sqlite/shavit-local.sq3`
- Automatically created on first run
- Stores player times, rankings, and replay data

**To switch to MariaDB later** (optional):
1. Edit `addons/sourcemod/configs/databases.cfg`
2. Change driver from `sqlite` to `mysql`
3. Configure host, database, user, password
4. Restart server

### JSON Zones Configuration

The server is **automatically configured** to use JSON zones instead of SQL-based zones:

**Automatic Setup:**
- Zones loaded from [surf-zones](https://github.com/wrldspawn/surf-zones) repository
- Includes 400+ maps with pre-configured zones
- No manual zone creation needed for supported maps
- URL: `https://wrldspawn.github.io/surf-zones/z/{map}.json`

**Configuration Files Created:**
- `cfg/sourcemod/plugin.shavit-zones.cfg` - Disables SQL zones
- `cfg/sourcemod/plugin.shavit-zones-json.cfg` - Sets JSON URL
- `addons/stripper/` - Map entity fixes
- `addons/sourcemod/configs/shavit-mapfixes.cfg` - Map settings
- `addons/sourcemod/configs/shavit-styles.cfg` - KSF-style configurations

**Benefits:**
- ✅ No manual zone editing for popular maps
- ✅ Community-maintained and updated
- ✅ Includes map fixes
- ✅ Matches KSF server standards
- ✅ Faster deployment

### Server Configuration

Edit `etc/cfg/server.cfg` for server settings:
- Hostname, RCON password (change default!)
- Surf physics (gravity, air accelerate, max velocity)
- HUD settings (minimal by default)
- Network rates
- Player settings

**Important:** Change the default RCON password:
```cfg
rcon_password "changeme"  // CHANGE THIS!
```

## In-Game Commands

```
rcon_password <password>    // Authenticate RCON

## Development Notes

### 32-bit Mode

The server runs in **32-bit mode** for maximum plugin compatibility:
- Most SourceMod plugins and extensions are 32-bit only
- DHooks and other critical extensions lack 64-bit versions
- 32-bit provides better compatibility with the plugin ecosystem

### Plugin Installation Pattern

All plugins follow an idempotent installation pattern in `etc/run.sh`:

```bash
if [ ! -f "$CSTRIKE/addons/sourcemod/plugins/plugin.smx" ]; then
    cd /tmp
    wget "https://github.com/author/repo/releases/download/version/plugin.zip"
    unzip -o "plugin.zip"
    cp -r addons/* "$CSTRIKE/addons/" 2>/dev/null || true
    rm -rf "plugin.zip" addons/
    echo "Installed Plugin vX.Y.Z"
fi
```

This allows safe re-runs without reinstalling existing plugins.

### Run Script Flow

The `etc/run.sh` script executes in this order:

1. **update_cssds()** - Download/update CSS DS via SteamCMD (skipped by default)
2. **steamclient_binary()** - Locate and symlink steamclient.so (32-bit)
3. **install_surf()** - Install timer, extensions, and physics plugins
   - Install MetaMod:Source if missing
   - Install SourceMod if missing
   - Install sm-json (JSON library)
   - Install sm_closestpos (replay positioning)
   - Install sm-ripext (HTTP/REST)
   - Install Shavit Surf Timer with sounds/materials
   - Install shavit-zones-json from original bhoptimer
   - Install MomSurfFix, EventQueue Fix, RNGFix
4. **configure_shavit_zones()** - Download JSON zones, stripper configs, mapfixes
5. **configure_shavit_database()** - Create SQLite database config
6. **configure_admins()** - Create admins from SRCDS_ADMINS env var
7. **cfg()** - Copy server.cfg
8. **run_cssds()** - Launch the dedicated server

### Version Strategy

**Fixed versions are used** for:
- **Stability** - Known working versions
- **Reproducibility** - Deterministic builds
- **No API dependencies** - Avoids rate limits
- **Easy rollback** - Specific version control

## Verification

### Check Installed Plugins

```bash
docker exec -it $(docker ps -qf "name=cssds") \
  ls -la /home/steam/cssds/cstrike/addons/sourcemod/plugins/*.smx
```

### Check Extensions

```bash
docker exec -it $(docker ps -qf "name=cssds") \
  ls -la /home/steam/cssds/cstrike/addons/sourcemod/extensions/*.so
```

### In-Game Verification

Connect to the server and run:
```
sm plugins list
sm exts list
```

You should see:
- **Plugins:** Shavit (multiple modules), momsurffix2, eventqueuefix, rngfix
- **Extensions:** sm-json, closestpos, ripext, dhooks, sdkhooks

## Troubleshooting

### Plugins Not Loading

1. Check MetaMod: `meta list`
2. Check SourceMod: `sm version`
3. Check errors: `sm plugins list`
4. Check logs: `addons/sourcemod/logs/`

**Common Issues:**
- Missing extension dependencies (install sm-json, closestpos, ripext)
- Wrong architecture (use 32-bit plugins/extensions)
- File permissions (ensure steam user owns files)

### Zones Not Loading

**Symptoms:** Map loads but no start/end zones

**Solutions:**

1. **Check if map exists in surf-zones:**
   - Visit: https://github.com/wrldspawn/surf-zones/tree/main/z
   - Search for `surf_<mapname>.json`

2. **Verify JSON zones enabled:**
   ```
   sm_cvar shavit_zones_usesql
   // Should be "0"
   ```

3. **Check sm-json loaded:**
   ```
   sm exts list
   // Look for sm-json or json.inc in includes
   ```

4. **Check logs:**
   - `addons/sourcemod/logs/shavit/`
   - Look for HTTP/JSON errors

5. **Create zones manually:**
   ```
   !zones     // Zone editor
   !edit      // Admin zone editor
   ```

### Missing Sounds/Materials

**Symptoms:** Missing finish sounds, zone decals

**Solution:** Reinstall Shavit to get sound/material files:
```bash
rm /path/to/data/cssds/cstrike/addons/sourcemod/plugins/shavit-core.smx
docker-compose restart cssds
```

### Server Won't Start

1. Check logs: `docker-compose logs cssds`
2. Verify port 27015 available
3. Check disk space
4. Verify SteamCMD succeeded
