I confirm that

• I have searched for an existing bug report for this issue.
• I am using the latest available version of AMP.
• my operating system is up-to-date.

Intended Action

I am trying to input a literal "{{X}}" as part of a game's server title via a game's AMP configuration UI.

For example, under Server Name for a Counter-Strike source server, I enter {{X}} New AMP Server.

However these curly braces are getting removed by AMP in the actual game's setting files.

Expected Behaviour

The Server Name entered in the UI should be saved as hostname "{{X}} New AMP Server" in counter strike source's server.cfg

Actual Behaviour

The server name shows up in counter strike source's server.cfg as hostname "X New AMP Server" with the double curly braces removed.

Reproduction

1. Install a game (I will use counter strike source as an example but this seemed to be an issue for every game)
2. In the instance, go to Configuration and the game's settings (Counter-Strike: Source)
3. Enter {{X}} New AMP Server as the Server Name
4. Restart the game server
5. Open the instance's File Manager and open cstrike/cfg/server.cfg
6. You will see that the hostname setting is saved with the curly braces stripped

Try escaping them with backslashes \{\{X\}\} - That particular syntax of {{X}} has a special meaning in AMP.

Ive tried the following:
\{\{X\}\}
\\{\\{X\\}\\}
\{\{X}\}
{{{{}}X{{}}}}
"{{X}}"
\u007b\u007bX\u007d\u007d
{{{{X}}}}
{{{{{X}}}}}}

I know AMP is using double curly braces for variable templating but in this case it seems like it should escape the input somehow. Or at least there should be a way to escape these characters.

(Ah, they beat me to it)
Had them try that while bouncing ideas around in the development channel, had them try Unicode-escaped variants, \u007b ({) and \u007d (}), and no dice.
From what they said it's written to the KVP properly, but doesn't make it intact to the game configs.
