This is a known problem that is supposed to be addressed in the upcoming Patch. Till then, you can just enter the map_rotate command through RCON when the problem arises. From my experiences it seems to be totally random as it may happen a couple times in a day, then it won't happen for a week or more.

Try this:

Put:
+set map_rotate
at the end of your command line.


Then put:

map mp_<first map in the maplist>

as the last line in your server config file.

Restart your server. That should work.

so it would look like this:

// Map Rotation
set sv_mapRotation "gametype tdm map mp_brecourt gametype tdm map mp_carentan gametype tdm map mp_dawnville gametype tdm map mp_ship gametype tdm map mp_depot gametype tdm map mp_harbor gametype tdm map mp_hurtgen gametype tdm map mp_pavlov gametype tdm map mp_powcamp gametype tdm map mp_railyard gametype tdm map mp_ship"
//-----------------------------------------------------
set sv_mapRotationCurrentmap

map mp_brecourt



I'll give that a try. Thanks.

1 more question. i've seen a setting for a timeout, something like sv_timeout "#" does this work on CoD servers? and if so, what does it do?
