Omg lol that's it?

Thanks!

Gonna try this tonight. Also, does the amount of events affect network performance? Probably a silly question, but I'd like to be sure before I go completely apeshit with this awesome feature (custom gametypes!!!!!).

And is there really no way to make the server continue on a preset mapcycle (specifically, with stock maps) if no votes are cast for the next map? It would really help hosts with some custom maps in the voting... In a perfect world everyone would have HAC or OS to download their maps for them... Sigh...

Did you try it without the custom commands?

Ill try to make a gametype like that either tonight or tomorrow, ill try not to base it off yours so we can see where the issue is :-D

EDIT: What is the $type argument? Never seen it?

And what exactly isn't working in the gametype? The whole thing? Spawning with the right weapon? Pickups?

Gonna try this tonight. Also, does the amount of events affect network performance? Probably a silly question, but I'd like to be sure before I go completely apeshit with this awesome feature (custom gametypes!!!!!).

Nope, it does affect cpu usage slightly and if you have a crappy host then the server could start to lag duo to the higher cpu usage.
However you should be fine unless your host does a lot of over provisioning, but you probably would have had lag issues before if that is the case, so more events isn't going to cause any lag.

Just a guess but try removing the space after the ;
for example event_kill $map:bloodgulch $mode:sp $kills=1 'disarm $n; giveneedler $n'
should be: event_kill $map:bloodgulch $mode:sp $kills=1 'disarm $n;giveneedler $n'

Also try changing the #n to $n:

giveneedler #n 'spawn weap "weapons\needler\mp_needler" #n; wadd #n' 4
giveneedler $n 'spawn weap "weapons\needler\mp_needler" $n; wadd $n' 4

When you do that also remove the last $n from: event_kill $map:bloodgulch $mode:sp $kills=1 'disarm $n;giveneedler $n'

Halo PC SAPP keeps crashing my server. I find my server down and come back to find "Halo has crashed, blah blah blah, send an error report?". The Halo server console is still open and SAPP unloads/reloads itself or whatever and I guess continues on its way? Regardless, it crashed and none of my others servers do this with the configuration I currently have for those servers. Any ideas, suggestions, tips, questions?

[sanni]

Feature suggestion:

event_end $pn<6  'mapcycle:tinycycle.txt'
event_end $pn>5 $pn<8 'mapcycle:smallcycle.txt'
event_end $pn>7 $pn<12 'mapcycle:midcycle.txt'
event_end $pn>11 'mapcycle:bigcycle.txt'

[Btcc22]

Feature suggestion:

event_end $pn<6  'mapcycle:tinycycle.txt'
event_end $pn>5 $pn<8 'mapcycle:smallcycle.txt'
event_end $pn>7 $pn<12 'mapcycle:midcycle.txt'
event_end $pn>11 'mapcycle:bigcycle.txt'

I've wanted this feature for the past decade.

[{XG}Gijs007]

a mapvote function like that would be nice to

[sanni]

I have been running a server with dynamic slots and mapcycle based on current players population and it's working great. The only problem with my current approach is that it's very possible to play the same map twice in a row.

In the commands.txt I got my "mapcycles" set up like so:

small1 'sv_maxplayers 8;map carousel ss;say * "Next Map: Derelict Slayer Snipers"' 4
.
.
.
small16 'sv_maxplayers 8;map wizard tss;say * "Next Map: Wizard TeamSlayer Snipers"' 4

mid1 'sv_maxplayers 12;map hangemhigh tss;say * "Next Map: HangEmHigh TeamSlayer Snipers"' 4
.
.
.
mid16 'sv_maxplayers 12;map bloodgulch caketheflag10m;say * "Next Map: Bloodgulch CTF"' 4

big1 'sv_maxplayers 16;map timberland caketheflag10m;say * "Next Map: Timberland CTF"' 4
.
.
.
big16 'sv_maxplayers 16;map icefields cakephobia10m;say * "Next Map: Icefields CTF"' 4

And then in the events.txt I switch to the next map in one of the "mapcycles" based on the current number of players:

event_end $mode!:cbctf $mode!:twl2v2 $mode!:twlassault $pn<8 'small$rand'
event_end $mode!:cbctf $mode!:twl2v2 $mode!:twlassault $pn>7 $pn<12 'mid$rand'
event_end $mode!:cbctf $mode!:twl2v2 $mode!:twlassault $pn>11 'big$rand'

Hopefully one day we will get the

event_end $pn<8 'mapcycle:smallmapcycle.txt'

command but right now I feel it's the next best thing

Another nice addition would be arguments in the mapcycle.txt like

$pn>8bloodgulch:ctf
$pn<8 beavercreek:slayer
ratrace:ctf
beavercreek:teamslayer

So it would only execute certain entries of the mapcycle if the argument is valid

[sehe]

This function is already done in 5.20 tbh, I just have to delay the release because I'm too lazy I have exams now.
mapcycle.txt will be like this:
map:mode:min:max

for ex:
bloodgulch:ctf:0:16
hangemhigh:ctf:4:12
ratrace:ctf:0:12
sidewinder:ctf:8:16

First number means the minimum required players to play the map, second is the maximum amount of players that can be in the server in order to run that option, otherwise it will be skipped. However, if no map matches the requirements simply the next one will be executed.
