hi all, i rent a rocketarena server, and its all good, except i cant get the
map auto rotation to work, ive tried all the usual, put exec map.cfg in
auto.exec. and in the baseq3 and in the arena, and in the server cfg
made map cfg, put map.cfg in base and arena folders,
its a Linux server, and i think somewhere in the server.bat file or
somewhere there's a command i need to turn on for map autorotation.
thanks in advance.

Create a file called maps.cfg (or something similar) with the following contents:

set g_gametype 4 // CTF (0=FFA, 1=tourney, 2=SP, 3=TDM)

set fraglimit 0
set timelimit 20
set capturelimit 8

set m1 "map q3ctf1; set nextmap vstr m2"
set m2 "map q3ctf2; set nextmap vstr m3"
set m3 "map q3ctf4; set nextmap vstr m1"
vstr m1

Next, fire up your server and from the console (or via rcon) type:

exec maps.cfg

Done.
