Hey, so I want to make simple mapchange plugin that will change current map when server has less than 15 players. I want to make .ini file where I can add maps that would be cycled.

Can anyone explain this to me?

Explain what? Read the file like you read any other file. Without more details on what you actually want from us, that's about what you get.

You can just change the "mapcyclefile" cvar and set the new file there. The rest will happen automatically.

Well, I wanted someone to explain me the whole concept of creating ini files, not like step by step, but I don't quite understand it.

And how do I do that, I can't find any function or anything that can change mapcycle.

There are hundreds of plugins that read and write to files and also tutorials. Look at those if you want to learn. If you run into issues, post your code and we'll help you out.
