This feature was long overdue:

To vote for the level of your choice, type the level name in the console. For example, to vote for level dm6, toggle the console down and type,

dm6

To get a list of levels, type "levels" in the conole. Originally there was a menu you could use by typing "change-level", but now that command just works exactly as "levels".

For a list of Quake map names to episode names, please check out Baker's map reference,

http://www.runequake.com/maps/

A level vote will expire in 30 seconds to 1 minute. If there were not enough votes to change the level, you'll see a message indicating such. Use vote-exit to acknowledge a pending vote.

This feature is still under development so please let me know of any oddities or improvements.

I am glad to hear that one! I have wanted that one for years.

Can it do custom maps?

I think a lot of people are unaware of the new command so if there are no votes pending, typing vote-exit will display the list of levels instead of voting for a random level.

In addition, I finally fixed the "0 votes needed" bug. This would occur when votes where placed within the first 15 seconds of the level. To add insult to injury, the votes wouldn't be tallied again until roughly two minutes after they were placed, or if a player typed vote-exit again.

If a vote is in progress, you can type the requested level name to vote, as well as typing vote-exit/vote-map.

How bout if you make it so if you type commands it shows the list of commands available to the player.

Good idea, I'll add that to the list.

Thanks,
