    Hi,
    For some time now I've been running a server with my own custom gamemode. My gamemode is based on the CTF gamemode and I've pretty much just written some changes (along with other things away from the Rules folder), but whenever the server updates the Rules folder is reset. I tried putting the gamemode in a mod folder but it didn't load. I tried using autoupdate_ignore_custom.cfg but my gamemode still got replaced.
    Whenever this happens on my server I quickly just run a small bash script to copy over files, but it's not very convenient.
    I have attached the zipped up version of the folder that I want to add to the rules folder.

    You're not right but you led me on the right track. The server_autostart.as includes a script called DefaultStart.as
    There I found the two line 10 and 16:
    Code:
    LoadRules(  "Rules/" + sv_gamemode + "/gamemode.cfg" );
    
    
    LoadMapCycle( "Rules/" + sv_gamemode + "/mapcycle.cfg" );
    I then edited these paths to my own Rules folder in my mod folder.

    Edit: Sorry, didn't notice the solved tag, my bad :S!

    This reminds me alot of https://forum.kag2d.com/resources/rulesloader.128/.
    Try that maybe?
    gamemode.cfg doesn't load when inside a mod folder without that apparently, so yeah. Also, I recommend hoping on kag.modding for general questions such as this one.
