Note:The Animgraph Editor is not in CS:2 and it is unknown if they will be added. Map scripting currently exists in a limited form called source_ts, which Valve uses to implement game modes such as gun game.
Note:A small amount of the pages here are placeholders taken from Half-Life: Alyx Workshop Tools for now.
Bug:On some systems, running Counter-Strike 2 with Workshop Tools, will cause the memory usage to increase abnormally (memory leak).1
Workaround:Launch CS2 Workshop Tools (without -gpuraytracing) by going to CS2's
