Yes, as this is my first plugin and the only thing there is to work with is the small chat window, it is easy to be overzealous with the messages to start with. I've been toning back the default frequency values as the version progress. I have a few ideas on how to reduce the spamminess. I think I will add the nextmap command as it is the most effective way to get the information. However, for other users to find out about the command you must go back to the spammy messages. It's a vicious circle haha.

 

Once I get the majority of the functionality implemented I'll have time to tweak the interface to something more streamline.

 

Thanks for the support guys.

Hi

 

Ok im sorry i forgot that, that i can make 1 round in the maplist and then the plugin automatically works on the first round of a map. ;-)

 

but a command like @nextmap to disable the spam would be really nice. Anyway great work! thanks! ;-)

Then the population is less likely to falter under lack of players on larger maps.

0-16 any map on TDM/SQDM

17-32 any conquest small/rush map

33-48 the smaller/non air conquest large maps

49-64 the biggest maps like B2K only

that is because i run emptymap plugin where a map is played only when the server is empty and i dont want player to have the option to vote for it.

This plugin will only vote from the maps in the maplist. So a plugin which changes the maps in the maplist depending on player numbers or some other condition would work perfectly along side this. The idea is to keep it as simple and modular as possible. I'm not sure which of the other plugins offer the adaptive maps but it's a fairly simple task and if there isn't anything that offers this I could put a rough working model together quite quickly. Let me know.

 

 

There is currently a bug when the same map is placed in the maplist with two different modes. So I would hold off using it on mixed mode servers until I sort this out.

map black list : MP_001 TeamDeathmatch0
this map will never be shown in the vote list even if it is in the map list

Code:

map white list : MP_012 ConquestLarge0 2 
                 MP_007 ConquestLarge0 2
these 2 maps will be played if the votes for a map did not exceed the threshold specified.

So use this plugin ( www.phogue.net/forumvb/showth...-12-31-11)-BF3* )along side this one. It is called the Ultimate Map Manager.

aether, could be possible use a different list of maps to the vote (no the current mapcycle) ?

 

Good job ;-)

If I correctly have understood you

But itself put I know. :smile:

Use a normal mapcycle (ex. caspian CQ, Firestorm CQ, etc) but use another map list (ex. just B2K maps or rush maps, etc.) just for the vote.

 

Why this? it's simple: you can use the vote system to offer something different without force to the players to play it all the time.

I avoided this as the rate at which the tickets decrease varies wildly in conquest. If one team is dominating the other there may not be enough time for a vote to complete. Or if the teams are close it may take 10 min more for the round to end.

I think that the real issue using the tickets as the rate is on the rush mode.

 

BTW: I saw if a map won the vote, the map cycle follows his current position and no the normal cycle, ex.:

 

Normal cycle:

caspian

firestorm

G. Bazaar

Wake Island

 

 

Current map: firestorm

Won the vote: caspian

 

When caspian map starts I see on maplist that the next map will be firestorm (if it no one win the next map the vote).

 

After the won map, could be possible continue with the map on the next position when the the vote started? (G. Bazaar on the example).

 

 

Good job ;-)

Rush is a bit of a bitch because there is no way for the plugin to know if an MCom has been destroyed (indicator of attacker's progress). So the attacking team may push and destroy all the Mcoms without losing many tickets so no vote would be called for that round.

Yes, I'll look into an elegant way to implement this.

Now works fine

Excelent (On my mapcycle Caspian can be CQ or Rush)

 

Great plugin
