amx_lock sets sv_password (random or given) and shows it to admins only; amx_unlock clears it. A HUD reminder keeps admins aware the server is locked.
CSB Admin Password is the fast way to close a server for a clan war or a private match. amx_lock [password] sets sv_password to the string you give it, or generates a short random one (ambiguous characters like 0/O and 1/I are left out), and prints the password only to admins. amx_unlock clears it again. While the server is locked a HUD reminder with the current password is shown to admins so nobody forgets it is on.
Features
amx_lock [password]— use your own password or get a generated one.- Random length set by
csb_lock_len(clamped 4–20), from a confusion-free charset. - Password revealed only in the admin chat channel, never to regular players.
- Recurring HUD reminder to admins while locked, kept in sync if
sv_passwordis changed by hand. amx_unlockclears the password; both actions are logged.
Installation
- Compile
csb_admin_password.smaand copy it toaddons/amxmodx/plugins/. - Add it to
plugins.iniand change the map.
Both commands need the ADMIN_PASSWORD flag (i) by default. Remember the server must have sv_lan 0 to appear in the master list; a password does not remove it from the list, it just gates joining.
