How do i delete CSS maps from my gmod server

[rojuslap]

So i got those CSS maps that i want to delete, they are not in the maps folder.. when a map changes it changes to a css map. I DONT want css maps on my server

I wonder how to delete them?

Thanks, Rojus

You can't delete them. You should exclude them from your voting.

And hows that? :D

[Rubat]

You open your lua file that contains the voting code and edit it. How should I know how you have coded it?

If you show us how your vote-script grabs maps, we can help you eliminate them.

cs maps start with: [url]https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Map_prefixes[/url]

[B]Counter-Strike, Source & Condition Zero [/B]
[B]Prefix Map Type Description[/B]
AS Assasination Counter-Strike and VIP Mod only
CS Hostage Rescue
DE Bomb Defusal
ES Terrorist Escape Now defunct, originally official
TR Training Maps Only official appearance in Counter-Strike 1.5 retail.
Note:Condition Zero uses enhanced versions of the original Counter-Strike maps denoted with a "_cz" suffix.

[B]Counter-Strike: Global Offensive[/B]
[B]Prefix Map Type Description[/B]
AR Arsenal: Arms Race
CS Hostage Rescue
DE Bomb Defusal

Typical are the cs_, de_.

When cycling through the list of maps to add to the vote in a for loop, you could use:
[lua]if ( string.StartWith( string.lower( mapname ), "cs_" ) ) then continue; end[/lua]
You'd need to do that for each association you want to skip.

You could grab the first 3 characters, and compare them using a table:

[lua]// Defined outside of the loop
local _excluded_map_prefixes = {
de_ = true;
cs_ = true
};

// In the loop
if ( _excluded_map_prefixes[ string.sub( string.lower( mapname ), 1, 3 ) ] ) then continue; end[/lua]

That could be modified to work with more / less characters. The string.StartWith is automatic in returning a boolean in terms of if the text starts with what's listed. string.lower is a necessity as some maps have oddly placed upper/lower case letters; by setting them all lower you're avoiding having to check every case value per match.

I hope this helps you get started in modifying your vote script.

Wheres the vote lua file again? :D

What game-mode are you running? What addons are you running?

Found it. now where do i add this?

// Defined outside of the loop
local _excluded_map_prefixes = {
de_ = true;
cs_ = true
};

// In the loop
if ( _excluded_map_prefixes[ string.sub( string.lower( mapname ), 1, 3 ) ] ) then continue; end

[Acecool]

I haven't played around with the TTT voting system since Fretta.

But, since you found the file, maybe you can post it here and we could nudge you in the right direction. Additionally, is it text vote, image vote, addon you downloaded for map-vote, TTT built-in / vanilla vote?

What is it specifically?

When you open the vote-map-file; there should be a system of determining the maps which will be on the ballot. You'd put the _excluded_map_prefixes either at the top of the file you're editing, or right above the function which does the stuff so that it's close-by.
Next; you'd need to add the // In the loop part, in the for loop where it's deciding.

Could you send me the code for the css maps to not work

[Acecool]

Nope; but I'll tell you where to edit:

[lua]local function init()
local mode = GetConVarNumber( "ulx_votemapMapmode" ) or 1
if mode == 1 then -- Add all but specified
local maps = file.Find( "maps/*.bsp", "GAME" )
for _, map in ipairs( maps ) do
map = map:sub( 1, -5 ) -- Take off .bsp
if not specifiedMaps[ map ] then
table.insert( ulx.votemaps, map )
end
end
else
for map, _ in pairs( specifiedMaps ) do
if ULib.fileExists( "maps/" .. map .. ".bsp" ) then
table.insert( ulx.votemaps, map )
end
end
end

-- Now, let's sort!
table.sort( ulx.votemaps )
end
hook.Add( ulx.HOOK_ULXDONELOADING, "ULXInitConfigs", init ) -- Time for configs[/lua]

That's the function that contains two loops which figures out what maps to look for. Put the exclusion array outside of that function; and figure out where in there ( after map is defined ) to put the continue.

You'll need to paste it twice; there are two modes for it to add maps. All, or specified. You'll want to block prefixes from both. Although, chances are you haven't "specified maps" so you'll probably be ok editing just the first one.

o_o... oh god i think i suck at lua :D

[Acecool]

If you read my post very carefully; it tells you exactly where to create a new line to add exactly what code where. This is the development section; you can't expect everyone else to do 100% of the work for you. There's got to be a moment where you at least try; otherwise everyone will scream for you to go to coder-hire.

I've already created the logic required to skip the maps you don't want to include, all you have to do is copy/paste it. It's not that hard to do that part and hopefully you'll learn something from it.
