Insurgency Sandstorm Map Cycle
This article will inform and show you how map cycle works on your server.
Map Cycle
By default, a server will cycle through all Versus (PVP) scenarios available.
The server can be configured with a mapcycle file which contains a list of scenarios, separated by new lines. By default, this file must be placed in Insurgency/Config/Server/MapCycle.txt. This can be defined on the command line using the -MapCycle parameter. So if you wanted it to read MyOtherMapCycle.txt you would specify -MapCycle=MyOtherMapCycle.
For example, a Skirmish only server’s MapCycle.txt should look like the following:
Scenario_Crossing_Skirmish
Scenario_Hideout_Skirmish
Scenario_Precinct_Skirmish
Scenario_Refinery_Skirmish
Scenario_Farmhouse_Skirmish
Scenario_Summit_Skirmish

For Checkpoint scenarios “Insurgents” and “Security” refer to the faction you play as. For Push, the faction names represent the team you attack as. Firefight for most maps will contain a West and an East layout.
*Please note that the // that you see before a line is used to ignore the text or command on that said line.
