Admin menu

Type !admin in chat (or css_admin in the console) to open the admin menu. It needs @css/generic and only works in game.

What is in it

The menu shows only what the admin’s flags allow: entries without permission are hidden, and a category with no visible entries is hidden too.

Category	Entry	Flag
Manage players	Slap, Slay	`@css/slay`
	Kick, Warn, Force team, History	`@css/kick`
	Ban	`@css/ban`
	Gag, Mute, Silence	`@css/chat`
Manage server	Change map	`@css/changemap`
	Restart game	`@css/generic`
	Custom commands	`@css/generic`, plus each command’s own flag
	Manage plugins	`@css/root`
Manage admins	Add admin, Remove admin, Reload admins	`@css/root`
Fun commands (module)	God, NoClip, Respawn, Give weapon	`@css/cheats`
	Strip, Freeze, HP, Speed, Gravity, Money, Resize	`@css/slay`

The Fun commands category comes from the Fun Commands module; without it the category is gone. Other modules can add their own categories.

Manage players → Ban → player → duration → reason. Gag, mute, silence and warn work the same way; kick skips the duration. The player list leaves out bots and players with higher immunity.

The menu follows the same rules as the commands: without @css/permban or @css/permmute, “Permanent” and durations above the maximum are refused (see Limits per admin).

Changing durations and reasons

The lists come from MenuConfig in CS2-SimpleAdmin.json:

"MenuConfig": {
  "MenuType": "selectable",
  "Durations": [
    { "name": "1 minute", "duration": 1 },
    { "name": "1 day", "duration": 1440 },
    { "name": "Permanent", "duration": 0 }
  ],
  "BanReasons": ["Hacking", "Voice Abuse", "Chat Abuse", "Admin disrespect", "Other"],
  "KickReasons": ["Voice Abuse", "Chat Abuse", "Admin disrespect", "Other"],
  "WarnReasons": ["Voice Abuse", "Chat Abuse", "Admin disrespect", "Other"],
  "MuteReasons": ["Advertising", "Spamming", "Spectator camera abuse", "Hate", "Admin disrespect", "Other"]
}

Durations are in minutes, 0 is permanent. MuteReasons is used for gags, mutes and silences. Reasons can only be picked from the list; for anything else use the command with a typed reason. AdminFlags is the list of flags the Add admin entry offers.

The map list comes from DefaultMaps and WorkshopMaps, the custom commands from CustomServerCommands (see Configuration).

MenuType sets how menus look:

`MenuType`	Style
`selectable` (default)	Each player picks their own style with `!menutype`.
`wasdmenu`	Navigate with W/S, select with E (`wasd` and `dynamic` also work).
`center`	HTML menu in the middle of the screen.
`chat`	Numbered list in chat, pick with `!1`, `!2`…
`console`	Printed in the console.

!menutype (css_menutype) belongs to the bundled CS2MenuManager. The player’s choice is saved per SteamID: in CS2MenuManager’s own MySQL database if it has one configured, otherwise in a file under shared/CS2MenuManager/.
