You only get one command option per group/map. If you want to perform more than one action, separate each action by a semicolon (;) or store them in a .cfg and exec the config in the command.

Example:

...
"Attack & Defend"
{
  "maps_invote" "1"
  "next_mapgroup" "Payload"
  "command" "mp_maxrounds 2; mp_timelimit 0"

  "cp_dustbowl"
  {
    "weight" "2"
  }
  "cp_gravelpit" {}
  "cp_steel" {}
  "cp_egypt_final" {}
  "cp_mountainlab" {}
  "cp_gorge" {}
  "newvanti2" {}
  "avanti_b1" {}
}
...

Ok. I've been testing by editing my umc_mapcycle.txt file, uploading, changing map on the server to see if the cvars get changed. I'm doing this via HLSW. I'm not getting changes using either of the methods above (;) or separate configs file.

Someone please learn this n00b?

"umc_rotation" { "Attack & Defend" { "maps_invote" "1" "next_mapgroup" "Payload" "command" "exec orangebox/tf/cfg/mapconfig/gametype/pl.cfg" // "command" mp_maxrounds 2; mp_timelimit 0" "cp_dustbowl" { "weight" "2" } "cp_gravelpit" {} "cp_steel" {} "cp_egypt_final" {} "cp_mountainlab" {} "cp_gorge" {} "newvanti2" {} "avanti_b1" {} } "Payload" { "maps_invote" "1" "command" "exec orangebox/tf/cfg/mapconfig/gametype/pl.cfg" // "command" "mp_maxrounds 2; mp_timelimit 0" "pl_goldrush" { "weight" "2" } "pl_badwater" { "weight" "4" } "pl_thundermountain" {} "pl_upward" {} "pl_hoodoo_final" {} "pl_frontier_final" {} "pl_cashworks_rc2" {} "pl_halfacre" {} } "5-Point CP (Push)" { "maps_invote" "1" "default_min_players" "2" "group_weight" "2" // "command" "exec orangebox/tf/cfg/mapconfig/gametype/cp.cfg" "command" "mp_maxrounds 4; mp_timelimit 26" "cp_freight" {} "cp_freight_final1" {} "cp_granary" {} "cp_well" {} "cp_coldfront" {} "cp_yukon_final" {} "cp_badlands" {} "cp_fastlane" {} "cp_5gorge" {} "cp_gullywash_imp3" {} "cp_mountainlab" {} } "Capture The Flag" { "maps_invote" "1" "default_min_players" "2" // "command" "exec orangebox/tf/cfg/mapconfig/gametype/ctf.cfg" "command" "mp_maxrounds 2; mp_timelimit 30; tf_flag_caps_per_round 4" "ctf_well" {} "ctf_turbine" {} "ctf_doublecross" {} } "King of the Hill" { "maps_invote" "1" "default_min_players" "2" // "command" "exec orangebox/tf/cfg/mapconfig/gametype/koth.cfg" "command" "mp_maxrounds 3; mp_timelimit 30" "koth_moonshine_rc" {} "koth_nucleus" {} "koth_viaduct" {} "koth_harvest_final" {} "koth_lakeside_final" {} "koth_oilfield" {} } }

It reloads the umc_mapcycle.txt file AFTER executing the commands. If you want to test it, you're going to need to either change the map twice, or run sm_umc_reloadfile and then change the map.

Also, when you exec .cfg files, you put in the path relative to the cfg folder. For example:

"Attack & Defend"
{
  "maps_invote" "1"
  "next_mapgroup" "Payload"
  "command" "exec mapconfig/gametype/pl.cfg"
  ...
}

^^Thanks for that!

Well, I got some errors with your latest version 2.4.4

That normally means there's something wrong with your umc_mapcycle. Please check to see that the syntax is correct.

[UMC] Cannot rock the vote until the next map.
[SM] Cannot rock the vote for 0 more seconds.

I've seen it happening twice but apart from that on the other occasions rtv worked fine.

This is since i updated from v2.4.2 to v2.4.3.
But i also installed dodgeball since then and had to change umc_mapcycle.txt so maybe that could be messing stuff up.

[Steell]

If you're seeing the [SM] message, that probably means you have the SM rockthevote.smx plugin active, and you should disable it.

I'll look into what could be causing the issue.

[Steell]

Version 2.4.5 Released.
If you're coming from v2.4 or higher, you only need to replace the .smx for this release.

• Disabled exit button on runoff votes.
• Made runoff votes use proper pagination (< 9 options = no pagination [Radio Style Menus only])

Don't know what could have caused that but rockthevote.smx was in the disabled folder the whole time. Can you take a look at the attached mapcycle file? For some reason it makes the server crash after i rtv and select the first group.

edit: i noticed this command:

default_max_players

was not mentioned by you in the OP so i removed it, rebooted and tried again. But it made the server crash again. Is that a valid command?

console log:

I also have a question about the invote setting in the mapcycle file. I'm not sure i understand it.

In the config file it says:

// Specifies whether the number of nominated maps appearing in the vote for a // map group should be limited by the group's "maps_invote" setting.

And in the example mapcycle file in the OP each group has an invote setting of 1 and you wrote:

Each group will have up to 1 map appear in a vote, whether that vote be RTV or an end of map vote.

Is the invote setting related to nominated maps by players or is it simply a way to limit the number of maps shown?

The mapcycle file looks correct. Can you open up the source, set the DEBUG constant at the top of the file from 0 to 1, recompile, throw the new binary on your server, try again and show me the log if it crashes? (If you don't know how to compile the plugin just PM me and I'll do it for you).

Yes it is a valid command. The full documentation of all the available commands is located in the comments at the top of umc_mapcycle.txt.

The .cfg comment you posted is the comment for the sm_umc_nominate_strict cvar. Normally, the maps_invote setting will limit the total number of maps picked randomly in the group to that number. Nominations are immune to this limitation (to replicate the functionality of the original mapchooser). Pretending maps_invote was set to 2 for a group, if there was only one nomination, the vote would contain that nomination and one random map from the group. If there were two nominations, there would be the two nominations and no random maps. If there were three nominations, there would be the three nominations and no random maps. For people who didn't want the nominations to take up more than the number of slots specified by maps_invote, I added the sm_umc_nominate_strict cvar, which, in the event the number of nominations exceeded the maps_invote setting, would limit them to the amount specified by maps_invote.
