How to set the map rotation in CS2

Type mapgroup mg_active in the server console, or put it on the launch line, so the server rotates through that map group.

mapgroup

Sets the map group the server rotates through.

mapgroup <group>

Examples

mapgroup mg_active

Rotate through the Active Duty maps.

Arguments

groupRequired
Name of a map group, for example mg_active.

What it does

Map groups are defined in the game mode files (gamemodes_server.txt). The rotation uses the maps in the group in order. It is usually set on the launch line.

The game's own description: Specify a map group

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to game/csgo/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS2 server first.
