Map Vote Plugin V1.0.2.0 - 1 August 2010

Update to 1.0.2.0:

Should be able to see Map Pack 5 maps. I have set it up so you should only need to enable and disable the plugin once if a new map pack comes out (assuming Map Pack 6 are the same maps, just different gametypes). If they actually release new maps, you'll have to download a new version.

 

Map Vote Plugin - Version: 1.0

 

This plugin will give the players on the server the control over the next gametype (and if the vote is successful - the next map as well).

After a defined set time once a new match is started, the players will be prompted to vote on the gametype. A list of choices will display until the player has voted or if enough votes are casted to give a winner.

The vote command is customizable, but by default, a player can vote by: /@vote # , where # is their choice.

 

Please read the README, it contains important information about how to set up the plugin settings, both manually and through the custom drop down list (thanks Phogue ).

A few things though, could you specify in the display of the plugin options how long in time the vote will last, ie: seconds/minutes. I know it might be simple enough to know already, but for those that don't know of might be unsure. Also, how long does the vote prompts appear, every 3 seconds, a minute ,or what?

 

Could you set it so we can decide if we would like it to automatically prompt for a vote or set it so it has to be initiated by a player?

Thanks, but the feedback from others should be acknowledged, couldn't do it without them.

See (1) in the picture, this is the duration of a vote, in minutes. This means the gametype vote will last for twelve (12) minutes - or anything you want, but I would suggest keeping the number reasonably short, or it may not finish. The map vote will last the same amount of time, so keep that in mind for duration.

Also, how long does the vote prompts appear, every 3 seconds, a minute ,or what?

See (2) in the picture. This is the number of prompts that will occur during a specific vote. There are three (3) prompts set, so at the beginning of the voting, another 4 minutes later, finally another at 8 minutes. At 12 minutes, the final vote is tallied. You will be prompted for the delay in between prompts as you are entering the values.

Could you set it so we can decide if we would like it to automatically prompt for a vote or set it so it has to be initiated by a player?

You want a !rtv command? Sure.

That is more for if the server admin doesn't want to have the map vote start automatically, but be dependent on a player in the server to bring up the options and start the vote. Depending on how the server admin would like it to be, either automatic, player started, or both if someone might want to start another vote after the previous one finished if they didn't like what got voted.

 

 

 

You got to love a community, they help with everything! Thanks everyone!

Had a quick look and couldn't see a cause, however an exception would be occurring when you abort the thread.

 

t.Abort() always throws the exception System.Threading.ThreadAbortException so you should wrap that in a try/catch.

For example, I have my server set to play 2 rounds of rush and 1 round of conquest. If we could make this plugin only allow voting for conquest maps during the second round of rush, and only allow voting for rush maps during the conquest rounds, that would be awesome.

 

I agree that an RTV option would be nice, so that automatic voting can be disabled. I'd prefer my normal map rotation to go on, and if enough players decide to vote, then allowing them to do so.

 

How many votes need to be cast for the vote to succeed? Is there a way to change this threshold?

Okay, V1.0.1 will be posted with this in it.

I'll put in an option (not sure how I'll write it yet) that notifies the plugin what to do if the current gametype is X --> display only Y (and Z) gametypes. If there is only one, go right to the map vote.

 

How many votes need to be cast for the vote to succeed? Is there a way to change this threshold?

Right now, if a vote is casted, the winner is with the most vote (or with a tie, one of these options are randomly picked). You want a percentage of current players to vote?

You can probably use an if/then function to get it working with mixed gamemodes. If gamemode=rush, then votemode=conquest...only in real code

 

Love the plugin though, please don't take this as criticism, just trying to help out. If you need a server to test on, please PM me.

I love giving admins the freedom to select how many players they feel need to vote, a percentage of the current number of players (it will take the ceiling of the number if it is a decimal) for the vote to pass.

 

You can probably use an if/then function to get it working with mixed gamemodes. If gamemode=rush, then votemode=conquest...only in real code

I have something better, that will be useful for clans that aren't using the mix mode plugin, but still want a breadth of gametypes.

I may be in touch with you then, my server is always empty.

A screenshot of the plugin settings area would be helpful

I've disabled it temporarily as it wasn't getting along with the mixed modes plugin too well, but like I said it wasn't displaying map names so maybe it's an install issue.

 

My server is pretty popular, usually full for at least a few hours every night. Let me now via PM or email me at [email protected]

I don't use any other map-related Plugin.

 

It doesnt display the mapnames. Not in the server chat. Not in the Yess-message. But in the Yell-message I noticed a " Dot (.)" as mapname....

Just released an emergency patch that removes the exception throw and displays the maps. The following features will be worked on and are NOT in this download:

 

-A percentage of players voting required to pass vote

- Control gametype votes based on current gametype

- Option for rock the vote by a player or every map where it is the last round to be played

I to have same problem.

 

i have procon hosted on PHS, now with that plugin you cannot change anything at all it just changes everything to default settings. So i decided to run a test and see if i could edit the plugin with local procon connect to gs. and i am able to add maps via the add or remove map in list feature and change other settings with out it changing back to default plugin settings, however it still does not list Port Valdez "levels/mp_012cq" or Atacama Rush "levels/mp_005GR" just a blank space next to number.

i only have atacama and port valdez running any chance you could add the option to keep current map, say if playing Port Daldez and Atacama was dure to load next, but if enough votes were cast would carry on playing Port Valdez. or vis versa if playing Atacama was playing and Port Valdez was due to load next.

 

help on getting Port valdez to so in votemap plugin would be greatly appriciated.

 

cheers

        	}
        	return mapName;

and now everything is working perfectly. I have not added the new maps yet but will still do it.

Ps. I run mixed gamemodes v3 with all rush and conquest maps in rotation and all is working perfectly.

any ideas.

Edit the maps in on the source code, then when you reload the plugin it will show by default.
