Summary

0004478: Additional options for sv_maprotation handling

Description

This is a feature request for when a given server wants to restrict the map rotation the server goes by, but not have sv_maprotation take over all NEXTMAP calls incase someone does a callvote. For example, an ultimate doom server wanting to host episode 3 only, but if someone does changemap from e3m1 to e3m4, the nextmap should be e3m5 and not e3m2. In this instance, maprotation should only take over if NEXTMAP leads to a map outside of the maplist, and change to a map in the valid list instead (first map in the maplist? or next unfinished map?)

Another way to possibly do this is have an option for maplist work ONLY based on map order in maplist, and not keep track of used and unused maps. In this option, if someone votes for the 0000033 map in the maplist, the next map will always be the 0000034 map, even if said map was already finished in this 'rotation'

Notes
(0024365) unknownna (updater) 2025-03-29 22:19	I agree with the premise of this suggestion. I also noticed how inconvenient it can be when it "regresses" to an earlier map with "nextmap" because it's in the maplist and wasn't played yet.
