Whenever a map is called via vote or rcon, it screws the map cycle. The 
called map restarts over and over until the server.cfg is executed again.

anyone know of a command or a way to make it so that the map cycle is resumed 
after a map is rcon or voted in?

I was hoping someone would answer this. People on my servers used to change 
all kind of crap with votes, change gametype, etc. including having the map 
thing you're talking about, and the only fix I ever found was to either go 
in and re-exec the server.cfg or turn off voting, which pissed some players 
off.

You beat me to the same response OscartheGrouch - this happens on my
favorite server too.  Any luck with it yet sittingduck?

I posted the question here: 
http://www.forumplanet.com/planetquake/topic.asp?fid=1489&tid=1791848
and the answer I got is that it's a BUG. As someone there pointed out, you 
can put your maps in a seperate config file and exec that, instead of the 
whole server config. Doesn't really help much though.

Callvote has never messed up a rotation that I have seen. I only play
the Painkeep Arena mod though. Rconning or map_restart screws the
rotation 100% of the time.
