Auto run a map when loading a dedicated server?

[Darknighte9]

So right now my Build a hotel server is always running on skylands, and I want to change it to Miami, so that the server will automatically load on to that map without me having to constantly go in and change this. How do I do that?

In the dedicated shortcut, replace the file position from "-Skylands" to "-Miami".

change -mak skylands
to -map miami

How do you do you replace the file position? o_0 I'm new to this stuff as you can tell.

Step 1: Open Notepad
Step 2: Paste this code in.

Code: [Select]

start BlocklandLauncher.exe -dedicated -map *mapnamegoeshere*
pause
Step 3: Save as dedicated.bat in your C:\Program Files (x86)\Blockland (Make sure you change the "Save as type" to all files)
Step 4: Double click on that file.
Step 5: Enjoy.

I use a short cut called Blockland Dedicated Server to host my server. Should i change my script to run that instead?

You don't have to edit that one, just make this new one and use this one. It won't change anything that is currently in that folder.

Kk good, I think it works now. I'm going to go check and make sure it is running.

Well, it works, just won't run Miami like I told it to in the script. :s

You have to make sure its the exact name as the maps folder.

Yep, just figured that out a little bit ago. Thanks for your help!

also, you don't need to be ingame to change the map
put changemap(name); in the console

Can you load/save bricks with console/eval?
