How To Change The Map On Your Blade Symphony Server

Your Blade Symphony server starts on duel_winter by default. The map name also sets what players do on it: duel_ maps such as duel_temple are duels, free_ maps such as free_temple are free-for-all, and cp_ maps such as cp_docks are control point battles.

Changing Your Starting Map

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and select your server.
  2. 2
    In the sidebar, go to Settings.
  3. 3
    Under Gameplay, edit Map.
  4. 4
    Click Save & Restart to apply your changes.

Enter the map name without .bsp, for example free_winter.
