Settings

Here’s a list of all of the currently available settings parameters, and what they do

  • output_file: Full path to where the CS:GO output.log file is located, the prefilled value is the default for most people. Default Value: C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/csgo/output.log

  • clear_output_log: Boolean (true/false) of whether output.log should be cleared once STonitor is done with it, this prevents repeat output (a runtime caching solution is implemented for JB & Status and a round number session solution for TTT in the case that you turn this off). Default Value: true
