Extend the time

Hey guys,

I searched the forums to find out if there was an easy way to extend the time of the maps while using codjumper mod v1.8. I can't find the exact dvar that controls this time, only the ones that control the other gametypes.

Either i'd like to add more time to the server.cfg, or if there was a way to do it while in game from rcon that'd be great too.


Thanks for your time,

-Narc

The gametype uses the Deathmatch Cvars also, so change the deathmatch time, and the time shall chang ewith it.

One note for doing the time extend command, it really isnt a time extend. its more a default time setting.

so if your server is set to 20 minutes and you want an extra 5 minutes,

/rcon scr_dm_timelimit 5

But this makes your default time now 5 minutes. so when the map rotates, it'll be at a 5 minute clock and you'll have to change it back.

Another note is that you cant input same default time. So if your server default time is 20 minutes,

/rcon scr_dm_timelimit 20

wont work. use

/rcon scr_dm_timelimit 21

that'll change it to 21 minutes.
