Oy. Questions I've had about servers:

(Server) Is there a way to...
Disable lava? (ANSWERED)
Load ALL maps with a specified game mode? (ANSWERED)
Load ALL maps with a specified gravity? (Gravity is reset with each map) (ANSWERED)
Immediately change to the next map in rotation, like a "newmap rotation next" or something like that?

(Mapping) Worldcraft Questions
Whenever I try to change the flags for a texture, they always get reset as soon as I apply them, so I can't customize anything unless the texture is preset with those values. Help, please?

(Other)
What is match mode, how is it enabled, and what does it do? (ANSWERED)

Thanks in advance!

Lava: No.  Isn't bombsaway about the only map with it anyway?
Game mode: Yes.  "g_forcedgamemode" lets you set a game mode for each map, though the map has to support it, ie g_forcedgamemode pong.
Gravity: No.  Gravity is map-specific and is specified by the worldspawn in the map (or defaulted to 800).

Mapping: I don't use WC.

Match mode: There are several match related commands and settings.  If "allow_match" is set to 1, it means people can use the "match" command.  The user specifies a password and login pass with the command.  There's also a matchmode command which sets standard match settings, such as disabling autojoin.  You can override these settings with a config file specified by the matchmode_cfg cvar.

Thanks for the information, I guess all the people complaining about dying from lava in jump maps will have to live with it ;)
