MapVar

This is my first plugin that I've actually released and it's basically a port of MistaGee's "Map Specific Commands" plugin for AMX: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=16517.

The reason I made this when Source already supports mapname.cfg files is for some mods, like Zombie Master, they don't work, so this was my fix for that. Also this is easier to manage as all map configuration is handled by one file, instead of having hundreds of mapname.cfg files.

Credits go to MistaGee for the original plugin.

Tested on Zombie Master, but should work for any game.

Features:
Partial-name support. Use an open map name.
All configurations handled by 1 file. Can be changed by cvar.
Can run any command that is run by server, including turning off plugins based on map.


Requirements:
Sourcemod 1.0.3

Install:
Copy MapVar.smx into your addons/sourcemod/plugins folder.
Copy mapvar.cfg into your addons/sourcemod/configs folder.

Usage:
All commands go into the map configuration file, which can be changed by the cvar.

Mapnames are designated as either open or closed, and begin with a bracket, [.

Open: [mapname
This means that any commands after will run on any map that contains the mapname.
Ex. [cs_office - Commands will run on cs_office AND any mapname that contains cs_office in its name.

Closed: [mapname]
This means that any commands after will run only on the map specified.
Ex. [de_dust] - Commands will run ONLY on de_dust.

Example mapvar.cfg:

[zm_actualtetris4]
mp_timelimit 50
sm plugins unload omgplugin

[zm_hax_v
mp_friendlyfire 1

Configuration:

sm_mapvar_file - designates the file to read the map-based configurations from. Default: mapvar.cfg

This is like the 2nd in the past month, plus it comes built in with the new engine...

As he said, Zombie Master apparently doesn't have map specific configs built in. But yes, there are plenty of plugins that already do this.

I know there's been others but they didn't do what I needed them to do. Some of them wouldn't let me turn off plugins, they only allowed a cvar and a value. Also they use multiple files, which if you have a large maplist, can be cumbersome to manage. And I don't think any of them support partial names.

Nearly all of them.

Only other one that can do partial name matching is: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=607079. But again that is multiple files. Prefix matching does not equal partial name matching.

sooo.... are there any problems or anything? Can't really fix or improve on anything if there's no feedback .
