When a setting is not working
after the map loads
go to the server console and type just the setting name
and the server will print it with it's current setting.

For example

mp_match_can_clinch
"mp_match_can_clinch" = "0" ( def. "1" ) game replicated - Can a team clinch and end the match by being so far ahead that the other team ha

If it shows up as something different than what you set it for, then some .cfg file is setting it AFTER you set it and you have to track it down the nightmarish combinations of .cfg and order of execution csgo server cfg files have.

I put in echo statments in every cfg file to show me exactly what files are executing and the order they execute in.

From my server the echo statments shows what is going on.....

1) autoexec.cfg runs once at server start then never again
2) server.cfg runs next and then also on every map change
3) then your game mode cfg runs on every map change. For my server it is set up for casual, gamemode_casual.cfg

Try putting your setting at the very botton of your gamemode_????.cfg file and see if it now works.
