Map configs with prefix support 1.3
 

https://www.bcserv.eu/images/sourcemod/mapconfigs.png with prefix support


Plugin on Github: https://github.com/bcserv/mapconfigs - Forks & Pull requests are welcome

Allows you to have per map config files. Support for map prefix configs (example: dm_.cfg)
This is a complete rewrite of a map configs plugin I found somewhere.

You can have prefix configs that allow you to easily execute cvars/commands for a group of maps, without having to create a cfg file for each of them.
The executing order is alphabetical, that means configs that have the shortest name will be executed first.

Example:

Your maps name is js_build_puzzle_nine_v10

Your config files are js_build_puzzle_nine_v10.cfg, js_build_.cfg and js_.cfg

The executing order will be:

1. js_.cfg
2. js_build_.cfg
3. js_build_puzzle_nine_v10.cfg

Config structure

cfg/sourcemod/map-cfg/

ConVars

none

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

Either your post is incorrect or the code is because your code draws the configs from cfg/sourcemod/map-cfg not cfg/map-cfg

other than that, the plugin has worked so far without a hitch!

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

How is that any different from this plugin?

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

It works with all mods. :P

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

I use the plugin I linked on CSS, DOD:S, and TF2 just fine.

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

Well than the difference is this one was released in April for any mod and the other was made in January for CSS it said. :D

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

Thanks for reporting this :) I corrected this.

Well there are some things that are different.

• My code isn't so bloated like in the other plugin
• My plugin allows multiple prefix configs for one map, the config executing order is alphabetical, that means configs with shorter file name are getting executed first.
• My plugin doesn't read every line from the config and executes in the console, it's using the exec command.
• My plugin isn't limited to CS:S only ;)
• you don't need to have a _ in the mapname to use prefix configs, it works with anything.

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

thanks for the summary i will take a look at it later. even though the other plugin says CS:S only, it works fine in insurgency. however if the code is more efficient it would be worth a look see. will come back with any problems I find!

cheers

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

appears to work fine in insurgency. thanks. :up:

Re: Map configs with prefix support
 

Your plugin has a race condition. OnConfigsExecuted() guarantees that all configs have finished executing. But you're issuing an "exec" command inside OnConfigsExecuted(), and the changes won't necessarily be mirrored in plugins which rely on this guarantee (such as reservedslots).

I've added a forward to the 1.1 branch to help mitigate this problem, you can read about it here. This change will make it into 1.0.2 or so. I won't unapprove this plugin until a stable release has the new feature and this plugin has had time to update after that.

Note: "fixing" by using OnMapStart() is not a good idea since it occurs before sourcemod.cfg gets executed.
