pkd: array of string;
//...
for i := 0 to getarraylength(pkd)-1 do pkd[ i] := 'false';
//...
if pkd[ i] = 'true' then
//...
if pkd[ i] = 'false' then begin
pkd[ i] := 'true';
//...

Have you ever heard about type "boolean"?
It can have two values: true and false. Using it is much faster than checking if two strings match.


(216000 * 1) 
Whats the point of this calculation? I think (216000 * 1) is equal to 216000 so why are you multiplying it?

Script seems very handy.

But I can't stand to see a random function coded like the way you did, sorry ;)..

If you have a large maplist your script might be doing a lot of unneeded loops, so:
Code: [Select]
Function Shuffle(input: array of string): array of string;
var
len, high : integer;
begin
   
  len := GetArrayLength(input);
  setArrayLength(result, len)
  high := len-1
 
  for i := 0 to len-1 do begin   
    rand := Random(0, high);
    result[i] := input[rand];
    input[rand] := input[high];
    dec(high, 1);
  end;
end;

Haven't tested it, but I hope you get the idea.

Thank you JFK, I wasnt thinking straight last night when I made this.
TK, same response as JFK about the boolean, and the ticks thing, 216000 ticks is one hour, the *1 is there for customization.
Updated, version 1.1!

Yes, but admins aren't in the server all the time, and I don't think that worked either.

Does anyone have this script still? Or is there a better way to do a random map rotation than this?

Thanks.

I thought there was a mod like this one cause it's very simple thing to code... Eh, why do you keep with Pascal? It's so annoying cause you have to write these all "then", "begin", "end".... Bleee ;)
