So I am getting two separate issues with my CS:GO server, and I can't figure out how to fix them, effectively though what I am trying to do is:
1) Run 1 map all the time, even if the server changes map I only want the one map to be available. Think 24/7 Dust2 for example.
2) I do not want bots on my server by default at all, but I do not want to disable them with launch parameter -nobots just in case I want to add them (without restarting server).

The issues I get right now are:
The bot_quota_mode seems to take effect but the bot_quota defaults to 10.
The mapgroup name is apparently not recognised.

Turns out the second issue appears to be being caused by gamemode_casual.txt being executed after my configs, which is forcing bot_quota back to 10.

[Exp93]

Both issues resolved, turns out that using gamemodes_server.txt.example is not a good idea, the formatting of that file is extremely broken.

For anyone else that comes across this thread, and wants a fixed edition of the file, see link below.

in CS:GO
if you look inside gamemodes.txt, you see in each game_type; game_mode which cfg files are in exec section.

so in classic casual, it goes like this when server start:
- autoexec.cfg
-- server.cfg
-- gamemode_casual.cfg (Valve's gamemode file)
-- gamemode_casual_server.cfg (gamemode override file)
