Ultimate Mapchooser

I missed this post back when I was doing all my replies, but to answer your question, the number of options in the vote is solely controlled by the "maps_invote" setting for each group. This means that if that option is set to 1 for each group, then there will be a vote option for each group.

Unfortunately there isn't a good way to allow the user to control how many maps from a group while at the same time setting a limit restricting the total number, so you're just going to have to make your groups a bit more general in order to cut down on the number.

If you would like to pitch a plugin idea, send it to me via PM. I'm currently working on getting this plugin ready for 2.0 which will have translations support, so I may contact you then about that.

I've been watching your progress here and you've now really got me sold. I'm not sure if the following has been suggested, but possible to offset the menu selection slot numbers? Meaning, instead of always staring with 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. can you set an offset for the menu to be, 6,7,8,9.

As for possible new name, I'd like to combine two of the ones already stated into:

XtremeMapVoting aka XMV

I love acronyms just like the next person.

Thanks for your continued support of this.

I'm adding a cvar to control how many slots are offset, but right now the "sm_random_vote_blockslots" cvar will block the first 3 slots if it is enabled.

Small update coming out tonight with the following features:

• Ability to easily specify a sequence of warnings. ("30...1" would make warnings for 30, 29, 28 ... 1.)
• Fixed issue with time restrictions where the min was greater than the max was not working.

[Steell]

Version 1.5.1 Released.

• Added shortcut to vote warnings that allows users to specify a sequence of warnings with one definition.
• Fixed issue with time restrictions that prevented max_time from being larger than min_time (necessary for, as an example, 11:00PM - 6:00AM, which would be min_time: 2300 max_time: 0600)
• Changed name of plugin from Improved Map Randomizer (IMR) to Ultimate Mapchooser (UMC)

Nice updates! Getting weird(?) behavior with the update.

L 01/27/2011 - 06:47:38: Info (map "cp_dustbowl") (file "errors_20110127.log")
L 01/27/2011 - 06:47:38: [ultimate-mapchooser.smx] Unable to load KV file: umc_mapcycle.txt
L 01/27/2011 - 06:47:38: [ultimate-mapchooser.smx] Mapcycle failed to load!

I have a folder with different text files but my default file is called rotation.txt as set in the cfg file but it's still looking for umc_mapcycle.txt

// File to use for random map rotation.
// -
// Default: "umc_mapcycle.txt"
sm_umc_file "rotation/default.txt"
