name	find-CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam
description	Find and identify the CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam function in CS2 binary using IDA Pro MCP. Use this skill when reverse engineering CS2 server.dll or server.so to locate the ChangeTeam function by searching for known debug string references and analyzing cross-references.

Find CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam

Locate CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam in CS2 server.dll or server.so using IDA Pro MCP tools.

Method

1. Search for the debug string:

   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__find_regex pattern="ChangeTeam\(\) CTMDBG"
   

2. Get cross-references to the string:

   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__xrefs_to addrs="<string_addr>"
   

3. Decompile the referencing function:

   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__decompile addr="<function_addr>"
   

4. Rename the function:

   mcp__ida-pro-mcp__rename batch={"func": [{"addr": "<function_addr>", "name": "CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam"}]}
   

5. Find VTable and Calculate Offset:

ALWAYS Use SKILL /get-vtable-index to get vtable offset and index for the function.

VTable class name: CCSPlayerController

6. Generate and validate unique signature:

   ALWAYS Use SKILL /generate-signature-for-function to generate a robust and unique signature for CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam.

7. Write IDA analysis output as YAML beside the binary:

   ALWAYS Use SKILL /write-vfunc-as-yaml to write the analysis results for CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam.

   Required parameters:

   • func_name: CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam
   • func_addr: The function address from step 3
   • func_sig: The validated signature from step 6

   VTable parameters (when this is a virtual function):

   • vtable_name: CCSPlayerController
   • vfunc_offset: The offset from step 5
   • vfunc_index: The index from step 5

Signature Pattern

The function contains a debug log call with format string:

"%s<%i><%s><%s>" ChangeTeam() CTMDBG , team %d, req team %d willSwitch %d, %.2f

Function Characteristics

• Parameters: (this, team_id) where this is CCSPlayerController pointer, team_id is the target team

Team IDs

• 0: Unassigned
• 1: Spectator
• 2: Terrorist
• 3: Counter-Terrorist

VTable Information

• VTable Name: CCSPlayerController::\vftable'`
• VTable Mangled Name: ??_7CCSPlayerController@@6B@
• VTable Index: 102 (0x66) - This can change when game updates.
• VTable Offset: 0x330 - This can change when game updates.

• Note that for server.so, The first 16 bytes of "vftable" are for RTTI. the real vftable = _ZTV19CCSPlayerController (0x221e390) + 0x10 = 0x221e3A0.

Output YAML Format

The output YAML filename depends on the platform:

• server.dll → CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam.windows.yaml
• server.so → CCSPlayerController_ChangeTeam.linux.yaml
