AMXmod will do this for you...

Re: [hlds_linux] long map changes on cs 1.6
As I got a bit curious now, I looked it up myself. :-)
The code is in the SDK, dlls\multiplay_gamerules.cpp:
void CHalfLifeMultiplay :: Think ( void )
{
[...]
if ( g_fGameOver ) // someone else quit the game already
{
[...]
m_flIntermissionEndTime = g_flIntermissionStartTime +
mp_chattime.value;
// check to see if we should change levels now
if ( m_flIntermissionEndTime < gpGlobals->time )
{
if ( m_iEndIntermissionButtonHit // check that someone
has pressed a key, or the max intermission time is over
|| ( ( g_flIntermissionStartTime +
MAX_INTERMISSION_TIME ) < gpGlobals->time) )
ChangeLevel(); // intermission is over
}
return;
}
Translation: if the game is over, wait at least mp_chattime seconds. If
m_iEndIntermissionButtonHit becomes true after that, or
MAX_INTERMISSION_TIME (120) seconds pass, change the map.
A related function is:
void CHalfLifeMultiplay :: PlayerThink( CBasePlayer *pPlayer )
{
if ( g_fGameOver )
{
// check for button presses
if ( pPlayer->m_afButtonPressed & ( IN_DUCK | IN_ATTACK |
IN_ATTACK2 | IN_USE | IN_JUMP ) )
m_iEndIntermissionButtonHit = TRUE;
[...]
}
}
This checks if any player presses duck, attack, attack2, use or jump
after the game ends, and then sets m_iEndIntermissionButtonHit to true.
So, at least one player needs to press one of those buttons, or the
server will wait MAX_INTERMISSION_TIME (2 minutes) before changing the
map.

Re: [hlds_linux] long map changes on cs 1.6
Correct, left mouse click or whatever it's setup as. Quake3 (possibly 2 and 1 as well?), and any q3 based game I've played in MP mode are quite the same, even to the point where the word ready appears next to a players name when they +attack to show that they're ready. If all players do it, the map changes, if they all don't, then you can still chat.

Re: [hlds_linux] long map changes on cs 1.6
This has been discussed from time to time in the past, and AFAIK mp_chattime is used as a minimum delay, not a max delay. If you set mp_chattime to 60, it should force a minimum delay of 60 seconds and not change maps before that no matter what. If you set it to 1, it won't change maps for at least a second. This is usually not an issue because if there are players on the server, they are usually hammering the mouse or keyboard for the next map change. Is the server ignoring this and not changing maps for a minute, even when there are players hitting mouse/keyboard? I'm impatient - As soon as the end of round score appears, I'm hammering the mouse usually because I'm ticked that I wasn't number one and I can't wait for my chance to frag that jerk that keeps killing me :) - Original Message - From: "William Warren" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Monday, January 03, 2005 8:59 AM Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] long map changes on cs 1.6 > so is there anyway to cvar to force the server to instantly > change the maps instead of it ignoring the mp_chattime which it > apparently does? > > > OoksServer wrote: > > I always hammer the mouse at map change to force the map change.
