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_password is changed by hand.
• amx_unlock clears the password; both actions are logged.

Installation

1. Compile csb_admin_password.sma and copy it to addons/amxmodx/plugins/.
2. Add it to plugins.ini and 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.
