Hey there. I'm making a MOTD for a Garry's Mod server, and I'd like to know how to check what the current map is using either javascript or php. I'm sure there are tons of people out there that are smarter than me when it comes to things like this, so any help is appreciated! Thanks a ton.

That looks very helpful, thank you. Do I need to specify a game with the second link or does it work automatically (since gmod is a half-life mod)?

You will have to change the master server IP to accommodate for GMod, since it uses the hl2 master server list. Here's the IP: hl2master.steampowered.com:27011
Also, the game name should be "garrysmod"

this is for querying the master server, not querying a specific game server for map information.
