[Emp`]

[01:43] Emp`: for map configs, can you do like fy_* for any fy_ maps?
[01:51] Freecode: it wouldnt make sense
[01:51] Freecode: for all maps just use plugins.ini
[01:51] Freecode: o_O
[01:52] Emp`: but all fy_ maps or all de_ or cs_, etc.
[01:52] Freecode: oh
[01:52] Freecode: umm sure
[01:52] Emp`: lol
[01:53] Emp`: the correct answer should have been "why not just make a file for each map :-p"
[01:53] Freecode: well u can but if u have alot of fy maps then it be a hassle
[01:54] Emp`: yes but that is the server admin's problem
[01:54] Freecode: and amxx is here to make server admining easy ;]

um.. if you don't understand my request, I'll try to restate it now In your amxmodx/configs/maps folder, if you have a surf_*.cfg, then it effects all maps with the prefix surf_. Perhaps the new map specific plugins.ini could work in this way also, plugins-surf_*.ini .

I like this idea. Of course, you wouldn't want to use "*" as your wildcard character in a file name because it would cause all kinds of trouble. I'm not sure what a good candidate for the wildcard would be. Maybe "@" would work. Windows disallows "\/:*?"<>|" and linux would complain about the same. You could just not have a wildcard, but that would sacrifice some flexibility. With a wildcard you could even do things like:

[email protected] -- For all fy maps.
[email protected] -- For all fy maps starting with "joe."

Without a wildcard, you lose this flexibility, but you can still do what was originally described:

fy_.cfg -- would do all fy maps
(You would not want fy_joe.cfg to do all fy maps that start with joe, because you could not guarantee that fy_joe and fy_joecity should have the same cfg.)

I definitely think this should be implemented into the next update of AMXX.

This sounds like an awesome idea because it sucks trying to make everyone one for individual maps

This is added as revision 3286

It will be the following syntax:

amxmodx/configs/maps/prefixes/plugins-*.ini


The .cfg one is added too somewhere but looking up revision number is far too much work.
