== Auto execute console commands on startup ==

* In the <installation path>\steamapps\common\Deadlock\game\citadel\cfg folder create a text file name it autoexec.cfg
* Put the console commands that you want to run on startup of Deadlock in the autoexec.cfg file, one console command on each line and save it
* In the Steam app right-click Deadlocked in your list of games on the Library tab and select Properties...
* In the "LAUNCH OPTIONS" field enter -console -exec autoexec[[File:Launch options field.png|left|456x456px]]


*

== Hosting Custom Games ==

* The host starts a custom game by loading into the map with <code>map street_test</code>
** You may want to pause the game immediately after joining by pressing '''P''' to give other players time to join the match.
* The host finds their ID by running <code>status</code>
** Find a green line in the console that looks like this: <code>[Client] steamid : [A:1:XXXXXXXXXX:XXXXX] (XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX)</code> (the Xs will be replace with numbers)
** Select the part after <code>steamid</code> that looks like this, including the square brackets: <code>[A:1:XXXXXXXXXX:XXXXX]</code>
** Right click and choose "Copy Selected Text"
* The host sends players the ID they just copied. Players can now connect to the game by opening their console and running <code>connect [A:1:XXXXXXXXXX:XXXXX]</code> (replace the part after connect with the ID they got from the host).
* Upon joining, players will be able to select their team and hero. To bring up this menu again, players can run <code>changeteam 0</code>.
* If you ever want to restart the game, the host can run <code>changelevel street_test</code> .

=== Adding Bots ===

* On the main menu, before you start the game, run <code>exec citadel_botmatch_practice_6v6_hard</code> to load the bot config.
** You can replace <code>hard</code> with <code>easy</code> or <code>medium</code> to choose the bot difficulty.
** If you're already in a game, you can perform these steps then run <code>changelevel street_test</code> to restart the game instead of starting a new one.
* Run <code>citadel_spawn_practice_bots false</code> so that bots won't spawn immediately when the game starts.
* Run <code>citadel_spawn_practice_bots_count 12</code> to ensure that bots fill all remaining slots (they'll be added until both teams have 6 players).
* Start the game (i.e. <code>map street_test</code>) and press '''P''' to pause the game during the pregame (as soon as you load in).
** You can use <code>citadel_pregame_duration</code> before starting the game to increase the duration of the pregame if you want.
* Allow all other human players to connect and select their team and hero.
** The team/hero menu can be a bit glitchy. Players can use the <code>changeteam</code> command instead (see table above for command description).
** Remember to choose your (the host's) own team and hero as well. This may automatically unpause the game - press '''P''' after selecting a team to pause again.
** After all human players have joined teams and selected heroes, the host runs <code>citadel_spawn_practice_bots true</code>, then presses '''P''' again to unpause the game. Bots should fill the remaining slots on each team.
