Thanks

You can do it now using the custom presets. Just make different presets with the the vars.gameModeCounter command and assign them to your maps.

Hi, i wonder that which maplist would plugin select with the below config?

 

For example:

 

Maplist1 0-16

Maplist2 17-32

Maplist3 20-64

 

IF player count reaches to 25, which maplist will the plugin switch?

It should switch to Maplist 2. It goes in order from top to bottom.

If I build a custom preset based off of hardcore.. it will just default all the variables to the default of the preset I tried basing my custom one off of.

Not sure I understand. Can you provide screenshots and/or logs to demonstrate the issue? If you're unsure what to provide, please refer to the Support section of the original post.

Sorry... Lets see if I can explain this better. In your plugin you have 3 presets; Normal, Hardcore and Infantry. I wanted to edit the infantry preset to be "Hardcore Infantry" . . . All I did was change things like no health regen, 3d spotting and so on. When I was done with my changes I switched "Enable map list manager_" from no to yes and my changes to the presets were reverted back to default after doing so. I thought maybe I coudn't edit the plugin's presets.. So I created a custom one based off of Hardcore . . . Same thing happened. It switched my changes to the Hardcore presets default on my new custom preset. Procon Version 1.1.3.1 Plugin Version 1.1.2.1

 

Basically . . . I can not create my own preset with the plugin undoing what changes I made/added.

 

There is nothing out of the ordinary or significant in the console or events list, trust me.

Oh, I understand now. First of all, the 3 built-in presets can't be modified, which is why they say "view only" in the options list. Second, when you add a preset, you have to click on the "..." to the right of the words "String Array" in order to properly edit the values. If you click the "+" to expand the tree and then try to edit the lines that appear below, the changes will not be saved. I wish it worked that way, but that's not how PRoCon is written.

Gotcha! I figured this out after playing around a bit more.

Yes, it is. The values in startup.txt are only applied when the server is started. If the plugin makes any changes, they don't change the value written in startup.txt, but they will apply to all future maps until vars.gameModeCounter is used again to change the value.

OK, I made my donation 4 days ago and still waiting. After two days I wrote to the developer a private message and still waiting. I hope to get this plugin before I get old.

Yes. Either that, or search the web for the default number of tickets for each map.

Having a bit of a problem with map lists (time enabled)and not sure when / where the problem is actually happening so I'm not able to attach the logs.

 

Today I noticed that the server was replaying 4 maps over and over again while there were 9 maps in the ultimate map manager map list. When I went to the procon maplist everything looked ok... that is until I hit "refresh" and a totally different set of maps loaded were visible. This particular maplist that appeared in procon was not in any other UMM list. No idea where they came from. It was actually weird because even though a new maplist was visible in procon, only 4 of the maps from that maplist (about 7 maps on the maplist -- can't remember the exact number) were just repeating over and over again.

 

I made it so I'm the only one that can connect to the layer, restarted the layer, enabled / disabled procon layer, restarted the plugin and toggled on / off from within the plugin. When round ends we see that it's switching to the correct map list:

 

[22:31:49] UltimateMapManager: INFO -> Round ended.

[22:32:45] UltimateMapManager: TASK -> 45 players. Need to change to Map List 7 [map test 1].

[22:32:45] UltimateMapManager: WORK -> Changing to Map List 7 [map test 1].

[22:32:45] UltimateMapManager: WORK -> Setting server preset to Custom Preset: .

I do have several maplists which are disabled, 3 enabled. The one that it should be switching to is time limited (while we are testing) from 0:00 - 23:59. I'm using "Start with first map unless it was just played" for that map list.

 

Any ideas or suggestions?

 

Thanks!

1) In the map list that was only playing 4 of the 9 maps, do you have the same map listed twice? If so, that's why. If not, I have no clue without seeing the logs.

 

2) That's not a refresh button. That's a "load the maps from startup.txt" button. When you clicked the button, it loaded the maps from your startup.txt file, which is the same list that is loaded when your server is restarted. The plugin then changes the list to whatever you have specified in the plugin.

1: YES! I did have the same map listed twice. Going to remove and re-test now.

 

2: Interesting... I've used the load the maps button to refresh the map list before I think. My startup.txt does not have any maps in it.

 

Will be deleting the duplicate maps and will retest now.

 

Thank you.

As such, do not put the same map with the same game mode more than once in each map list.

How did I miss this!? 0_o

I still have the log for you, on ASS, try to send to you tonight, I haven't forgot about it . In the meantime I have a question about UMM and xVoteMapx plugin. I am running both plugins but when I restart procon the votemap plugin resets and the same maps come up in the vote each day and doesn't play the bottom half of the rotation (when I only run votemap). I am running a mixed server. I saw on the votemap plugin forum that they are using UMM to randomize the maplist. Will choosing "Randomize entire map list" fix this issue. Would this work to help randomize the votemap map list that is displayed? Or Not?

I don't know how xVotemap decides what maps to display. It should always pick randomly from all maps in the list if it's working right. Have your tried posting about your problem in that thread?

 

Choosing randomize entire map list will load the maps into the server in a random order (not matching what you have in UMM) when the map list is loaded. This may sort of work, but it's not really the optimal solution.

Usually it's within 12 hours if the instructions are followed. I actually saw your contribution this morning, but it didn't state Ultimate Map Manager anywhere, so I skipped it. I just got home and saw your followup emails and sent it out right away.
