Admin Settings

This guide explains the Settings page for production admins using MatchZy Auto Tournament. It focuses on what you need to fill in and what each option does, without development details.

What it is:
The Webhook URL is the base URL of your MAT site. CS2 servers use it to send match events and demo uploads back to your installation.

What to enter:

• In production (real tournament), this should be your live site URL, for example:
  • https://example.com
  • https://match.example.org
• It must be reachable from your CS2 servers.

If you are unsure what to use here, ask whoever set up your hosting.

What it is:
The Sync CS2 Maps button downloads or updates the list of available CS2 maps from the official repository.

When to use it:

• After first install, if you don’t see the maps you expect.
• When new maps are added to the game and you want them available in tournaments.

Click “Sync CS2 Maps” and wait until you see a success message. Existing maps are kept; only new ones are added.

The platform automatically applies MatchZy Enhanced configuration to matches based on tournament type (official vs shuffle vs manual). No manual configuration required.

These settings are intended for developers and test/staging environments.

The Developer / Simulation section is only visible when Dev Tools are enabled:

• in local development, or
• when the frontend is built with VITE_ENABLE_DEV_PAGE=true.

What it is:
Simulation mode runs matches as bot-driven demo matches to help test tournament flows without real players.

Safety:
In production, simulation mode is disabled by default. To allow it in a production-like environment (for example local Docker builds), set:

Only enable this in test/staging environments.

The simulation timescale controls how fast simulated matches run. Higher values speed up bots and round flow.
