[Tutorial]Setting up your Map Rotation
To set up your map rotation with SourceMod:
You have to change the following files: maplist.txt (fortressforever/maplist.txt) mapcycle.txt (fortressforever/addons/sourcemod/configs/mapcycle.txt) adminmenu_maplist.ini (fortressforever/addons/sourcemod/configs/adminmenu_maplist.ini) You will probably need to create the last 2 files (I had to) b/c the sourcmod dl doesn't come with them. maplist.txt should be the maps you want. listed one by one each on their own line. An example: Code:
ff_congestus ff_well ff_aardvark ff_etc Example: Code:
ff_congestus ff_well ff_aardvark ff_etc Example: Code:
concadam ff_aardvark ff_congestus ff_redgiant ... Once you have all that done you should be good to go. Trouble Shooting If your map is not starting at the first map in your maplist when you restart your server, you may need to check with your server provider. They probably have a specific map designated to be the "start map" whenever you restart / stop and start your server. You can test this on your own by placing the following line in your server.cfg (fortressforever/server.cfg) startmap "ff_dev_2fort" Stop your server completely Start your server And finally check which map it starts on If it starts up as anything but ff_dev_2fort then they have it set to start on something. I think the current default is usually ff_well (mine was). To solve this you have 2 options:
Example for Opt. 2 (assuming ff_well is default map): Code:
ff_well ff_congestus ff_well ff_aardvark ff_etc

this is assuming you have sourcemod and metamod installed.
If you don't, then I believe all you would need to do is edit your maplist.txt file, but lemme check more into it.

I agree with you but people love dev_2fort, can't say the same for epicenter.
