Server config generator

Pick a game module, a gameplay preset, the modes and votes you want, and download a set of config files ready to run. Everything happens in this page: nothing you enter, passwords included, is uploaded.

The generator needs JavaScript. Without it, start from the Docker image’s own configs: bundled server configs describes each file, and scripts/docker/ in the source repository holds them.

What it writes

File	When	Holds
`server.cfg`	Always	Identity, passwords, listing, downloads and the other server settings, then `exec bans`, `exec votes` and `exec default`, and the map last.
`default.cfg`	jaPRO and base	The gameplay preset, the gametype and limits, and your fine-tuning. Every mode runs it first.
`bans.cfg`	If you keep bans	`g_filterBan`, with `g_banIPs` left commented unless you enter addresses, so bans added with `addip` are kept.
`votes.cfg`	jaPRO, with vote options	One option per ticked mode and add-on, and the groups you choose.
One file per mode	As ticked	jaPRO modes copied from the Docker image, with the files they run; base modes built from a base server’s.
`README.txt`	Always	Where the files go, the launch options, and the maps they need.

A few rules hold for every combination:

Server settings go only in server.cfg, and gameplay only in default.cfg and the modes, so loading a mode never changes the hostname, passwords or player limit.
default.cfg also resets every setting the chosen modes change, so one mode’s settings never leak into the next.
Every cvar is written with set or seta. A bare name value line only changes a cvar that already exists (cvar.cpp), and the game module’s cvars do not exist until it loads with the first map. The join password, g_password, uses set and has CVAR_NONE (g_xcvar.h). jaPRO’s g_fullAdminPass and g_juniorAdminPass use seta and are archived (g_xcvar.h), so their values may also appear in the server’s saved taystjk_server.cfg (config writeback). The generator writes rconpassword with set; under Docker, keep it on the line that docker stop reads.
Only settings the console reference lists for the chosen target are written, and never ones the engine manages itself, such as sv_cheats and g_needpass. The base and other-mod targets only offer cvars that exist in base Jedi Academy.

Before you run it

The generator writes configs for a game module; it does not ship one. For base rules or another mod, install that mod’s jampgame library as running another mod describes. Before opening the server to the public, load every map and mode you plan to run and check it.
