I wonder which smartass came up with such a douchebaggy system. Autoexec, server, mapcycle, maplist worked like charm. There are tons of better ways to force updated or new cvar's (if not forced by us). This system with gamemodes, gamemodes_server, server.cfg, mapgroups, mapcycle, maplist is just so (won't say). Today I finally setup my server after a weird error that had been caused by sth in relation with ubuntu 8.04. Now after a few hours I am quite agitated by how the system was changed. I am still very confused by the map system lol. To me it looks like I am setting up a server in early beta with some dev tool and dev cfgs and not a day before official release.
