Here is something that could be implemented in 2 minutes. Write the name of the map to the server log when the server is started and when the map is changed. This will allow people to make a stats program that excludes scores and deaths from specified maps so you don't screw up your stats from all the deaths you've racked up in fun maps.

what you are saying doesnt make sense so you want servers to put mapnames in their names?? when the name of the map is right next to it?? thats stupid

No, the Kill Log. The Kill Log when your game jots down all the kills & suicides & stuff. Wherever did you get the notion that it relates to server name?! o.O'

And its not already in the consolelog. It does display a message in the consolelog which is specified in the map file such as

05-07-16 08:13:51 Fake:JOIN RED

but this follows no specified format because it is made by the author of the map. What I'd like is something along the lines of

05-07-16 08:13:51 loaded map ctf_fake

This should be either in the ConsoleLog-x.txt or Log-x.txt logfiles.

But first i will code an improved stats program. If anyones got any good ideas for it, please email then too th3raven@gmail.com.
