Configuration

GSP configuration is split across several layers.

Main Layers

• Game template XML under Panel/Panel/modules/config_games/server_configs/
• Panel modules under Panel/Panel/modules/
• Per-module config data such as Workshop XML files under Panel/Panel/modules/steam_workshop/game_configs/
• Database-backed server and user state

Practical Rule

When a setting affects startup commands, install behavior, or file editing, check both the module page and the game XML that defines the behavior.

Important Configuration Areas

• Game names, installers, and startup parameters
• CLI parameter definitions
• Mod and Workshop support
• File editing and replacement rules
• Admin-only module settings

Steam Workshop Configuration

• Workshop admin settings live in dedicated XML files under Panel/Panel/modules/steam_workshop/game_configs/
• Game XML workshop_support blocks define Workshop capability for game templates
