There are no start parameter .cfg file reference for goldsource engine servers (verrified for hldmserver and csserver). I don't know if they support it, but before, server.cfg used to be edited to be exec game-server.cfg as well, so that was fine. But according to NeoMaat on Discord, this isn't the case at the moment.

goldsource doesn't like the '-' hypen in filenames. It works if you change it to underscore '_'

A user tested exec hldm-server.cfg into server.cfg and it worked for him.
But that isn't the point.

so for counter-strike beta, which is an super old version of half life, it doesn't support '+servercfg' so I added this in the fix file
echo "exec ${servercfg}" > "${servercfgdir}/${servercfgdefault}"
like you said in your first post.
