Great question- random gametype

[Parrot]

I just had a guest of ours ask if it was possible to set the map list, but make the game type random- that way, you never knew what gametype was going to load into any different map at any given time.

If it could be controled a bit- say your clan hates retrival gametype... then play everything but RE.

It really sounded like a nice interesting way of putting maps together.

Is there a way to do this?

It probably would require a script to make it random. But you can play more than one game type by setting up a config file with each game type and maps for each game type. We currently run SD and RE on ours but it's not random.

Right- I understand that.

We run most stock maps, with a variety of gameplay. I also found you could put the same map into play with a different gameplay style, and it doesent corrupt the rotation like MOHAA did.

Also- it doesnt require hacking away at map.scr files to get a "mixed map rotation" that never really worked the way it was supposed to anyhow.

Below- my current map rotation- with variety.
