Title: Maps do not advance?
Post by: High_Noonan on May 14, 2008, 02:35:55 PM
Hey, all. I finally figured out how to get extra maps to be included on a Linux dedicated server, and then I upgraded to 0.7.6.
Oy!
Now I find that my maps are not being rotated through. It just keeps playing the same map over and over and over again.
I loaded in some maps from the 100 map pack (Pack 1). This is the important part of my server.cfg file.

Code:
set sv_maxclients "6"
set fraglimit "30"
set timelimit "15"
set sv_allowDownload "1"
sv_master1 "dpmaster.deathmask.net"


set m1 "map 79drdm5_beta2; set next map vstr m2"
set m2 "map alkdm13; set next map vstr m3"
set m3 "map alkdm14; set next map vstr m4"
set m4 "map apocalyptica; set next map vstr m5"
set m5 "map bal3void1; set next map vstr m6"
set m6 "map Bal3dm3; set next map vstr m7"
set m7 "map dk_ib; set next map vstr m8"
set m8 "map map_aedesert; set next map vstr m9"
set m9 "map map_kellblack; set next map vstr m10"
set m10 "map TeamTemple_q3a; set next map vstr m11"

// begin game DM (deathmatch)
// g_gametype - Gametype. 1 = DM, 2 = Tourney (1on1), 3 = Team DM, 4 = CTF.
set g_gametype 0
//map aggressor
vstr m1
seta bot_enable "1"
seta bot_minplayers "3"

I started the server and went to get dinner started. My cfg is set to 15 minute rounds. I came back 45 minutes later and caught the "One minute warning". A minute later the session ended and then started up again on the same map.
VERY annoying.

Please help?


Oh! Is this really needed?
sv_master1 "dpmaster.deathmask.net"

set m10 "map TeamTemple_q3a; set next map vstr m11"

make it like this and it will work:

set m10 "map TeamTemple_q3a; set next map vstr m1"
:D

Hi. Thanks for the reply.
I tried that and still no go.

My server.cfg is basically a straight copy of this one:
http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=854.0
but modified for my settings.

In the second section, the last two lines are not commented out. Is this right?
It doesn't make much sense to me.

your config says "set next map vstr m4" but the config file you've copied says "set nextmap vstr m4". that space between "next" and "map" might be the error?

You are a genius!!! I am making that change now and will post the results.
I'm willing to bet that that is it.

THANK YOU!
Another set of eyes always comes in handy.
