Load next map...

If you don't have the next map on the list. It should automatically load it while playing the game.

Yeah, but what would happen while it loads? What would you do while the map is being downloaded?

...It should automatically load it while playing the game.

As in, if you do not already have the next map on the map list installed, Soldat should silently download it while you are playing to prevent you from being ejected from the game once the new map loads.

If it was implemented, it should be an option in soldat.ini as it may cause lag on some slower connections.

Oh, hi, J-Factor.

I thought you meant it'd be downloaded when the map is switch and you don't have it. =P

But what about manual map changes?

Well naturally manual map changes are instant so you would have to accept being booted and reconnecting.  :)

This'd be a nice addition for servers with a lot of custom maps.
