-DP2skip: A vote to skip the map-

[3lf]

Hey! It's me again with a new script.

beta 6
changelog:
name changes broke the script.. well no more!

beta 5
changelog:
nothing major

beta4
changelog:
made improvements to ui

beta 3
changelog:
made a separate config to keep the user made changes for future updates

source: https://github.com/aapokaapo/DP2skip/

What it is?:
- A vote to skip map
- To vote yes, say "!skip"
- If the majority votes yes, map will change to next one in rotation
- there is a 10 second timeout after first player joins the server to prevent the first player to pass a vote immediately after mapchange

yeah, that's about it...


to make the script work you need python and modified DPLib from this zip.


Installation:

This script is meant to be running serverside

download link here (GDrive)

1. Install python

2. Install DPLib
    - cd DPLib
    - python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME/.local

3. Configure config.py
    - set rotation file
    - set the path to servers qconsole.log and rcon password

Definitely a thing this game needs, even if it should still contain bugs. These days a "full" server will get empty super quickly when theres a map nobody wants to play...

Map skip voting? That's awesome!

Pretty useful but this isn't stable, you might wanna look into it.

Updated the timeout script. Now it actually works as described.

How exactly is the script not stable? I need info on what do I have to take a look at
