    Random map rotation?

    Hi there...

    I have a server and was wondering if there was a way to make the server choose a random map + gametype each time the round finishes?

    I have no problems with any of the maps or gametypes, so I would like them all to be played...

    I have tried writing the config to play each map + gameptype but the server chucks up an error. But if I have about 15 choices it works fine??

    Here is the (long) line of code I tried for having the server go through every map + gametype...

    set sv_mapRotation "gametype dm map mp_convoy gametype war map mp_backlot gametype sab map mp_bloc gametype dom map mp_bog gametype koth map mp_countdown gametype sd map mp_crash gametype dm map mp_crossfire gametype war map mp_citystreets gametype sab map mp_farm gametype dom map mp_overgrown gametype koth map mp_pipeline gametype sd map mp_shipment gametype dm map mp_showdown gametype war map mp_strike gametype sab map mp_vacant gametype dom map mp_cargoship gametype koth map mp_convoy gametype sd map mp_backlot gametype dm map mp_bloc gametype war map mp_bog gametype sab map mp_countdown gametype dom map mp_crash gametype koth map mp_crossfire gametype sd map mp_citystreets gametype dm map mp_farm gametype war map mp_overgrown gametype sab map mp_pipeline gametype dom map mp_shipment gametype koth map mp_showdown gametype sd map mp_strike gametype dm map mp_vacant gametype war map mp_cargoship gametype sab map mp_convoy gametype dom map mp_backlot gametype koth map mp_bloc gametype sd map mp_bog gametype dm map mp_countdown gametype war map mp_crash gametype sab map mp_crossfire gametype dom map mp_citystreets gametype koth map mp_farm gametype sd map mp_overgrown gametype dm map mp_shipment gametype war map mp_showdown gametype sab map mp_strike gametype dom map mp_vacant gametype koth map mp_cargoship gametype sd map mp_convoy gametype dm map mp_backlot gametype war map mp_bloc gametype sab map mp_bog gametype dom map mp_countdown gametype koth map mp_crash gametype sd map mp_crossfire gametype dm map mp_citystreets gametype war map mp_farm gametype sab map mp_overgrown gametype dom map mp_pipeline gametype sd map mp_showdown gametype dm map mp_strike gametype war map mp_vacant gametype sab map mp_cargoship gametype dom map mp_convoy gametype koth map mp_backlot gametype sd map mp_bloc gametype dm map mp_bog gametype war map mp_countdown gametype sab map mp_crash gametype dom map mp_crossfire gametype koth map mp_citystreets gametype sd map mp_farm gametype dm map mp_overgrown gametype war map mp_pipeline gametype sab map mp_shipment gametype dom map mp_showdown gametype koth map mp_strike gametype sd map mp_vacant gametype dm map mp_cargoship gametype war map mp_convoy gametype sab map mp_backlot gametype dom map mp_bloc gametype koth map mp_bog gametype sd map mp_countdown gametype dm map mp_crash gametype war map mp_crossfire gametype sab map mp_citystreets gametype dom map mp_farm gametype koth map mp_overgrown gametype sd map mp_pipeline gametype war map mp_shipment gametype sab map mp_showdown gametype dom map mp_strike gametype koth map mp_vacant gametype sd map mp_cargoship gametype dm map mp_pipeline"

    There is a limit to how many characters you can have in a map rotation, i don't know the exact number though.

    And i have not heard/read of a command for a random map rotation.

      Their is no command for a random map rotation,and that rotation is waaaaaaaaaay too long.
      You can lose half of that easy.
      I think about 30 is the limit.

        That's a bit stupid??? Wouldn't it make sense if your able to let the server pick an choose?

        About the rotation... Yup, I did say it didn't work lol, I found out the hard way. Never mind.

        Thanks for the replies anyway.

          1028 character limit on sv_mapRotation

          Looked into this myself and it looks like, currently, there is no way to do random random each round. My advice would be to make a couple different map rotations and swap between them every couple days.

              What I do is have the server have the more favorite settings on the specific maps that everyone likes the most, then I use ModernRcon to change plays on the fly, for when you are in the mood for something unique.

              I know thats not what you were wanting, but it will make it a bit more flexible.
