Here are the planned features for the 1.9.0 release:

• Bugfixes:
  • Fixed bug where sm_setnextmap wasn't preventing the end of map vote. [Bug Report] (done)
  • The number of maps in a vote will be reduced if not enough maps are available to fill the list [Bug Report] (done)
  • Bonus Time length error is now only logged when mce_starttime is 0 [Bug Report] (done)
  • rtv is no longer blocked during the warning timer [Bug Report on the RUGC Midwest server] (done)
• Features:
  • DoD:S bonus time is now supported. [Request] (done)
  • Map list is now loaded immediately before the warning timer starts instead of on map start [Requested in other threads] (done, needs testing as this feature changes code in many places) (this change may be rolled back if it causes issues)
  • New cvar mce_hidetimer to hide the warning timer display. The first warning will still display. However, if you have the Sounds plugin installed, sounds will still play for every second. Request (done)
    • Still no support for the announcer counting time down incorrectly. Sorry, that bug was fixed in 1.4 and is a PITA to duplicate in newer versions.
  • Possible controversial change: The first menu option is now No Vote, and blocked slots now only blocks slots 2 and 3. (done)
  • Removed mce_forcertv (see next section as to why)
  • New natives: IsOfficialMap and IsNominateAllowed. The latter returns false if the map vote has already completed or if the nomination list is currently full. (done)
• New subplugins
  • RockTheVote Extended
    • Adds mce_forcertv with a bunch of fixes to make it work like the standard rtv. [Reported on the RUGC Midwest server] (planned)
  • Nominate Extended
    • Lists whether maps are official or not. (done)
    • When nominate is typed, checks whether nominations are currently allowed before bringing up the menu. (done)
    • Load the map list when the nomination menu is brought up. (planned) (this change may be rolled back if it causes issues)
