0000572: [Server software UI bug] There is no option to forbid vote changemap in the UI
In the access tab, there is an option to allow map changes, but this doesn't stop players from using callvote changemap / change map with intermission to change the map
1. Start a server with the option "allow map changes" unchecked in the "access" tab of "configure server"

2. vote to change the map with intermission, or use callvote changemap <map lump> to change the map

The vote will be allowed.
I would recommend adding a setting in the UI for forbidding changemap, or have the current setting just turn both off.
No tags attached.

I wasn't clear on this, sorry, but the current checkbox only effects map changes using 'map', not 'changemap'.

From a technical perspective this is not really a bug. The UI option is linked to sv_nomapvote and seems to do what it should do. I agree though that the UI option should either forbid both kind of map changes or that we add a new option to control changemap map changes. The former would save me from messing with the GUI. I'd like to hear some more opinions on this issue.

Changemap is a better way to change maps than "map". On the other hand, having only "map" available does seem logical when an admin prefers it (always a pistol start).

It would be useful to have them separate. A host could forbid only "map" changes so that players wouldn't lose their weapons if there was a vote to change the map.

However... it's not critical. If a host really wanted to forbid one, but not both, they could just look it up in the wiki. If it's too much work to change the UI, it would be much better to just have one button that forbids both than to have vote changemap not addressed at all in the UI.
