It would be nice perhaps to create a symbolic link to some commonly visited locations, as paths can get pretty awful (/home/csgoserver/serverfiles/csgo/addons/sourcemod/configs/mapchoose_extended, for example).

These would almost certainly have to be game specific, which might be challenging from a programming point of view, but for CS:GO at least perhaps a /home/csgoserver/link folder with:

csgo --> /serverfiles/csgo
cfg --> /serverfiles/csgo/cfg
maps --> /serverfiles/csgo/maps
sm --> /serverfiles/csgo/addons/sourcemod
sm_plugins --> /serverfiles/csgo/addons/sourcemod/plugins
sm_configs --> /serverfiles/csgo/addons/sourcemod/configs

I csv file list could be created and if the dir exists a symbolic link can be created. It would be down to the community to populate the csv file.

It shouldn't be too complex
