round time limits

[Echoman]

How do I change the round limit of the maps? I want it to be 45 minutes each round. Right now it is 20 minutes(the default). Please help!!!

zetsumi is correct. You answer is in a thread somewhere in this forum cause I asked the same thing before. If I find Ill post it, but do a search.

I went to that link and did as it says. The time limit for the map is still 20 minutes. Here is my webadmin settings.

10 Round Limit (0 - 999) 45 Time Limit (0 - 999) 6 Win Limit (0 - 999)

I also made this change in my .ini.

[DefaultRO MaplistRecord]
DefaultTitle=Default RO
DefaultGameType=ROEngine.ROTeamGame
DefaultActive=0
DefaultMaps=ro-arad?Roundlimit=10?Winlimit=6?Timelimit=45

I also noticed that there are several time settings in the .ini in several different sections. I don't know what these are, but am wondering if it has any effect.

I am not worried about how many rounds we play or the number needed to win, that seems to be set easily in the webadmin. I just want every map to run for 45 minutes regardless of what round it is.

.... I just want every map to run for 45 seconds regardless of what round it is.

I'm sure you meant 45 minutes? At any rate, I'm pretty sure that you can't control the map's runtime. Its hardcoded into the map. Its not like a CoD or MoH in that regard.

Thanks Floyd,I corrected the seconds to minutes. What the fudge is a CoD and MoH?

Hmmm, perhaps I was wrong. Maybe that 45 minutes was a total. For example, you set it at 30 minutes and 3 rounds. If the map is 20 minutes then it will only for for 1 1/2 rounds. Maybe thats why I never used it.

Any how, I think Floyd may be correct. In that case you would have to get into map editing and thats a different part of the forum. And good luck to you. I cant change anything on a map without it crashing, but, I suck at it so..

Yeah, I think Floyd is right. I am not gonna do any map editing, I have enough trouble with this. I have a whole new respect for you Bman!! This ain't easy. Thanks for all your help. I am gonna try to load a map tonight. I downloaded one from the link you provided. I did notice that it was already compressed when I downloaded it. Will I have to Compress it again for my redirect server?

Thanks

No, if it comes in a .rom and .uz2 format youre good. Just dump the .rom in your maps folder and .uz2 in your redirect folder on your server.

Its not so bad after awhile. Ill say it again though, you have to read, research, read, reasearch. Someday youll look back and laugh all all the little **** that tripped you up.

The good thing is you got some good people here and 99% of the time the question has been asked before and its out there, all you have to do is search, read, and read, and read, lol.
