LinuxGSM: Game server manager released in version v26.6.0

LinuxGSM has been released in version v26.6.0.

LinuxGSM is a command-line tool for easily installing, running and monitoring dedicated game servers on Linux.

Shortly after version v26.5.0, the update hides passwords, tokens and API keys in uploaded post-details and alert logs. Also, Counter-Strike 2, Empires and Zombie Panic! Source now receive the configured GSLT, and anonymous usage statistics no longer go to Google Analytics. Onset and BATTALION: Legacy are no longer supported.

Highlights

  • Security: Post-details and alert-log uploads now hide beta passwords, tokens, and API keys.
  • Updates: Source servers update when they request a restart. FiveM, Luanti, and OpenRA force fresh downloads, and GoldSrc re-validates shared content.
  • GSLT: Counter-Strike 2, Empires, and Zombie Panic! Source now receive the configured token.
  • Server reliability: Start failures caused by missing libraries are fixed in several games. Eco and SCP: Secret Laboratory get their required runtime dependencies.

Changes to existing behaviour

  • Onset and BATTALION: Legacy are no longer supported.
  • Chivalry: Medieval Warfare and Ballistic Overkill now apply LinuxGSM-managed settings on the next start. Direct edits to their game-owned config copies need to move into PCServer-UDKGame.ini and boserver.txt, respectively.
  • The Update Check workflow validates its install and update paths without an invalid pre-install diagnostic.

Game server fixes

  • Query and configuration fixes for Barotrauma, Avorion, Minecraft Bedrock, Stationeers, Jedi Knight II, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, and Ballistic Overkill.
  • Insurgency launches srcds_run on Ubuntu, and The Front receives its friendly-fire setting.

Other fixes

  • Core checks return a non-zero status on failure, even before logging is initialized.
  • Default configuration source directories are standardized, and the post-install command is labeled more clearly.
  • Anonymous usage statistics now go to the LinuxGSM Cloudflare-backed collector instead of Google Analytics. The opt-in setting is unchanged.
