It would be nice if GameCreate agent would write files with write permission for group members. I currently run daily cron job to change the perms. This would allow console admins to access files without sudo or root privilege.

Currently I have have GC default:
drwxr-sr-x 3 gamecreate games 4096 Jun 25 18:01 orange-box

Would like:
drwxrwsr-x 3 gamecreate games 4096 Jun 25 18:01 orange-box

Another annoyance is that GC always try to chmod srcds_run script. If I do an update from the terminal as a console admin and the srcds_run file is updated then it is owned by me (i.e. -rwxrwxr-- 1 s6v games 10046 Jul 27 19:49 srcds_run). GameCreate then fails to launch cmd-line. This fails cause all gameservers are owned by process owner gamecreate. I am running servers with owner 'gamecreate' and group 'games'. Maybe there is a better system design I should use but I am trying to restrict permissions and enforce a little security. Gamecreate process is a 'games' member and I expect it to launch and modify files with a group writable.
