Chat Commands¶

PracLab intercepts global chat (say) and team chat (say_team) to recognize player commands. All commands support both of the following prefix forms, case-insensitive:

Prefix	Example
`.`	`.prac`
`!`	`!prac`

Command Overview¶

`.crouchbot`	`.cbot`	Spawn a crouching bot at the player position
`.kickall`	—	Remove all bots
`.kick`	—	Remove the bot the player is aiming at

Utility & Environment¶

`.break`	`.br`	Break all breakable entities

Time & God Mode¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.fastforward`	`.ff`	Start 10× server time fast-forward for 20 seconds, then auto-revert
`.noflash`	—	Toggle flashbang immunity for the player (event-driven, other players unaffected)
`.god`	—	Toggle god mode for the player

Spawn Point Teleport¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.spawn <N>`	`.s`	Teleport to the N-th spawn of the same team (default N=1)
`.ctspawn <N>`	`.cts`	Teleport to the N-th CT spawn
`.tspawn <N>`	`.ts`	Teleport to the N-th T spawn
`.bestspawn`	`.bs`	Teleport to the nearest own-team spawn
`.worstspawn`	`.ws`	Teleport to the farthest own-team spawn
`.bestctspawn`	`.bcts`	Teleport to the nearest CT spawn
`.worstctspawn`	`.wcts`	Teleport to the farthest CT spawn
`.besttspawn`	`.bts`	Teleport to the nearest T spawn
`.worsttspawn`	`.wts`	Teleport to the farthest T spawn

Spawn Point Boxes¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.showspawns`	—	Re-display both teams' spawn boxes (auto-shown when prac mode is enabled)
`.hidespawns`	—	Hide spawn boxes

E-key teleport: Aim at a box and press the use key (default E) to teleport to that spawn; the chat shows "Teleported to spawn N". CT and T boxes are both green; the box center shows an index number (rotated per-map config). In prac mode there is no team restriction — players may aim at any box to teleport. Boxes only show competitive-mode spawns (consistent with the .spawn family commands).

Target Area Drawing¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.nadedraw`	`.ndr`	Three-step box target region drawing (left-click to confirm base corner / base diagonal corner / height point, right-click to cancel; red preview / green confirmed wireframe, max 8 regions)
`.cleardraw`	`.cdr`	Clear all your target regions (also clears search results)

Box semantics: the base corner and diagonal corner define the base rectangle (air points are projected down to the ground); the height point's z becomes the box top (must be above the base). The 3D box expresses height-aware targets such as "window flashes" and "on-box smokes".

Grenade Inverse Search¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.findall`	`.fa`	Search all throw modes × strengths for aim angles that land inside the newest target region
`.findnormal`	`.fn`	Search normal throws only (`.fnl`/`.fnm`/`.fnr` select left/mid/right strength)
`.findjump`	`.fj`	Search jump throws only (`.fjl`/`.fjm`/`.fjr` select strength)
`.findrunjump`	`.frj`	Search run-jump throws only (`.frjl`/`.frjm`/`.frjr` select strength)
`.findduck`	`.fd`	Search crouch throws only (`.fdl`/`.fdm`/`.fdr` select strength)
`.findduckjump`	`.fdj`	Search crouch-jump throws only (`.fdjl`/`.fdjm`/`.fdjr` select strength)
`.findduckrunjump`	`.fdrj`	Search crouch run-jump throws only (`.fdrjl`/`.fdrjm`/`.fdrjr` select strength)
`.nadeaccuracy`	`.nac`	Show/switch search accuracy `low` (4°) / `mid` (2° + refine) / `high` (1° + refine)
`.nadetype`	`.nt`	Show/switch item type `smoke`/`flash`/`he`/`molo`/`inc`/`decoy`
`.nadetest`	`.ntt`	Throw calibration: throw within 30s after arming, auto-detect strength/mode and print real vs predicted comparison to the server console
`.nadetestsim`	`.nts`	Single-shot sim debug: run one trajectory sim with `yaw pitch mode strength` and print diagnostics (origin/bounce log/land point/term reason/flight time) to console, for comparing with `.nadetest` real data

Search notes: draw a target region with .nadedraw first; searching is amortized under a per-tick millisecond budget and never stalls the server, with live progress in the center hint; flash/HE use a fixed 1.65s fuse air-burst as the landing point, molotov/incendiary use first ground contact or a 2s air-burst timeout, smoke/decoy use rest; wall-bounce spots are never killed by the pre-filter. The yaw scan sector is ±15° around the direction from your position to the target (known v1 coverage limit: direct + shallow-bounce lineups mainly).

Search Results¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.nadelist`	`.nl`	Print the search result table to console (ID / mode / strength / item / aim angle)
`.nadeclearlist`	`.ncl`	Clear all your search results and their visualization entities
`.nadegoto`	`.ng`	Teleport to the spot of a result ID, aim at the stored angle, show spot cross and trajectory preview

Result ID rule: item-mode-strength-index (e.g. SMK-N-L-01). After teleporting, throw with the hinted strength and mode to reproduce the found trajectory.

Team Switching¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.watch`	`.fas`	Force all other players into spectator mode, leaving only the command issuer active

Grenade Rethrow & Position Recall¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.rethrow`	`.rt`	Rethrow the player's last thrown grenade
`.rethrowsmoke`	`.rethrows`	Rethrow only the last smoke grenade
`.rethrownade`	`.rethrown`	Rethrow only the last HE grenade
`.rethrowflash`	`.rethrowf`	Rethrow only the last flashbang
`.rethrowmolotov`	`.rethrowm`	Rethrow only the last molotov/incgrenade
`.rethrowdecoy`	`.rethrowd`	Rethrow only the last decoy
`.last`	`.ls`	Teleport back to the last grenade position

Dryrun & Round Control¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.dryrun`	`.dry`	Temporarily switch from prac to competitive config for one round; auto-revert to prac when the round ends
`.restartround`	`.rr`	Restart the current round (executes `mp_restartgame`)

Dryrun flow: kick all bots → disable prac-specific ConVars (sv_cheats, traj, infinite_ammo, etc.) → load dryrun.cfg competitive config → restart the round to begin; when the round ends (EventRoundEnd), prac config is automatically restored. Use this to play a real competitive round from within a practice session.

Replay System¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.record`	—	Enter pending-record state; starts recording when the player moves or presses F (inspect key); press F again or use `.stoprecord` to stop and save
`.stoprecord`	—	Stop recording and save (equivalent to pressing F)
`.replay [Id]`	—	No argument: play back all stopped recordings in parallel; with Id: play back only that recording. A bot of the same team is auto-spawned as the playback carrier
`.stopreplay`	—	Stop all ongoing playbacks and kick the corresponding bots
`.clearrecord <Id>`	—	Delete the recording with the given Id (removes both JSON file and list entry)
`.clearrecordall`	—	Clear all recordings
`.currentrecord`	`.currentrec`	Print the recording list table (ID / Name / Status / Bot) to the server console

Two-layer architecture: The replay system consists of two parts — - Layer 1 (CSSharp C#): command dispatch, UI prompts, JSON read/write for recording files (under cfg/PracLab/recordings/). - Layer 2 (C++ Metamod plugin PracLabReplayEngine): hooks engine functions (ProcessMovement, CCSBot::Update, PlayerRunCommand, etc.) to implement frame-level movement recording and playback.

The cross-language ABI contract is documented in replay-engine/include/praclab_replay.h. Any change to field order/type must be synchronized across both layers.

When the replay engine is not deployed: all .record/.replay/... commands show a "replay engine not loaded, replay unavailable" message to the player, but other plugin features are unaffected.

Timer¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.timer`	—	Start timing; entering `.timer` again stops it and prints the elapsed time to the player

ConVar Toggles¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.solid`	—	Toggle `mp_solid_teammates` (teammate collision)
`.impacts`	—	Toggle `sv_showimpacts` (show bullet impact markers)
`.traj`	—	Toggle `sv_grenade_trajectory_prac_pipreview` (show grenade trajectory)

Help¶

Command	Alias	Description
`.help`	—	Display all available commands grouped by category in chat (visible to sender only)
