Random Starting Map

Don't like how Gmod servers only let you start on a single pre-defined map? Well, no longer!

Have your server start on a newly added map, or a completely random one with lots of filtering options with this mod!


1. You can use the settings below to tweak the list of maps available for your server to start on below.

2. Decide if you want the map chosen to be biased towards newly added maps (pick maps more newly added to the server more often).

3. Choose a map to be the designated map to switch from to a random map, i.e. the map you set your server to start on!


rsm_map_to_switch_from default: gm_flatgrass
This map cannot be played on and is automatically blacklisted and switched from to a random map when the server loads it, this should be the map your server starts on (Your server's '+map' parameter)

rsm_true_random default: 0
Whether the random starting map should be truly random (1), or try to pick new maps (0)

rsm_map_prefixes default: ttt_
What prefixes a map's name has to start with in order to be in the pool of random starting maps (unless on the blacklist/whitelist), separated by commas (E.g. the "ttt_" prefix is for maps made for the "Trouble in Terrorist Town" gamemode)

rsm_map_blacklist default: gm_flatgrass,gm_construct
What maps should be excluded in the pool of random starting maps regardless of its prefix, separated by commas (Takes precedent over the whitelist)

rsm_map_whitelist default: [nothing]
What maps should be included in the pool of random starting maps regardless of its prefix, separated by commas
