Cod UO VSTR map rotations- EDITED

[imported_chucknet]

well sorry to all have read this i was completely wrong and spoke up to soon, (thank you for making me see the errors in my ways- RDH-Maximus) BUT i did do some research and found this quide on the site -
http://www.codadmin.com/nuke/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=5 and this thread http://www.codadmin.com/nuke/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=298&highlight=vstr and so i revamped it for use with COD:United offense- (thank you bullet-worm for your work).
, sorry it isn't a .zip file but got now place to put it if you want the zip file with all my configs email me and i will send it to you chucknet@metrocast.net and i hope this redeems me. and scroll down the page to get the correct information. Also i made it a seperate config and called it rconmaps.cfg but you can call it whatever but then after that just do a "exec rconmaps.cfg from your server config to use it.

//vstr map rotation - the wrong way
set 1x "gametype bas; map mp_rhinevalley.bsp; set nextmap vstr 2x"
set 2x "gametype bas; map mp_ponyri.bsp; set nextmap vstr 3x"
set 3x "gametype bas; map mp_foy.bsp; set nextmap vstr 4x"
set 4x "gametype bas; map mp_kursk.bsp; set nextmap vstr 5x"
above is the way you can't do it:

below seems to work good so far:

also it still works the same way just do an - /rcon vstr <gametype>_<mapname> and it will put it into a different rotation type.

[BoSBrian]

Can someone explain this type of rotation to me. I know ET uses something similar.

[imported_chucknet]

first thing not 100% of a good professional answer but they seem to me to be very similiar to the idea of key bindings - meaning you set the variable and then within the "" you set what you want that variable to do and where to go next.

i also went through the .pk3 files some and found two maps that i missed which are:

map mp_stalingrad.bsp
gametype "dm tdm sd re bel hq"


map mp_neuville.bsp
gametype "dm tdm sd re bel hq"

so if you use this method you can just follow the sequences when you add them to the rotations

[cvj451]

You know I can't get this type of rotation to work. It appears that nextmap never fires. The server just complains about sv_maprotation being empty and just restarts the current map.

Is there some other server variable or command line argument to set so that nextmap is used instead of sv_maprotation?

[HankScorpio]

Unfortunately, you can't do rotations like this. The map_rotate command uses the sv_maprotationcurrent string to figure out what gametype and map to do next, not nextmap.

Brian, these kind of rotations allow you to set cvars within your map rotation. It's typically used to have mixed gametype rotation.

It'd be nice if it worked in UO because we could do things like turn vehicles on/off on a per-map basis.

[imported_chucknet]

Sorry to all who read this before but i edited my first post hopefully it will be a little more useful.

[nader]

so you are saying this will change map and game type and run that game type map rotion ?

if it does i would like to say thanks its what i was looking for. squad wants CODUO server able to change game type and map rotion. not just the one map.

and can i just copy and paste this into my cfg and just edit starting map and game type ?

[imported_chucknet]

yes what it does is when you type "/rcon vstr dm_berlin" it will start with map berlin and gametype deathmatch, and the it will goto the deatmatch rotation and continue with that rotation until some one changes it.

yes you could copy it into your server config but i would create a new .cfg maybe name it rconmap.cfg , to keep your server config a little more organized and not so big size wise, also the only i would do is on the bottom of your server config add the following lines

//configs to execute on server start
exec rconmap.cfg

or you can add to your command line like

"C:\Program Files\Call of Duty\CoDUOMP.exe" +set dedicated 2 +exec cod_uo_server.cfg +exec rconmap.cfg
