Counter-Strike 2 patch fixes grenade glitch, updates Cache and Shelter
A new Counter-Strike 2 update went live on August 3, 2026, fixing a case where grenades could be thrown through level geometry, applying a round of fixes to Cache, updating Shelter, and adding a large batch of map-scripting APIs.
Cache and Shelter
- Cache: Fixed various gaps in the map, collision in various spots, and flickering on some assets. A boost spot in Outside A was also removed.
- Shelter: Updated to the latest version from the Community Workshop (update notes).
Map scripting
The update adds several new scripting functions and events:
Instance.TracePlayer,Instance.OnWeaponPickup,Instance.OnBombExplode, andInstance.SpawnGrenadeProjectiledropperon theInstance.OnWeaponDropevent;hitEntityandnormalon theInstance.OnGrenadeBounceeventCSGrenadeProjectileBase.GetGrenadeType,GetThrower, andDetonateCSPlantedC4.IsBombsiteA,IsBombsiteB,GetPlanter,GetDefuser,IsActive,IsExploded,IsDefused,GetPlantTime,GetExplodeTime,GetDefuseStartTime, andGetDefuseFinishTimeCSPlayerPawn.HasDefuserandSetHasDefuserCSGrenadeTypeenum
It also fixes Instance.RegisterCheatCommand not working on script reload and deprecates bounces from the Instance.OnGrenadeBounce event.
