Proposed development of YR 1.002 Community Patch
The problem is that all maps that a modder wishes to use for specific purposes won't necessarily have the required mapfilters embedded.

This problem seems unavoidable to me.

When it comes to 'Survivor', yes there might exist maps that have unique mapfilters, but the mode itself does not require special maps. Now, if a user specifies a mode to play on standard maps, the specifically-designed maps won't be playable.

In this case, the best option is for the specifically-designed maps to have standard mapfilters as well as unique mapfilters. You could also add *SURVIVOR* to the map name (just like *TX* is for TX-only maps).

In the case of Assault mode, the mode cannot work without special maps because of the necessary embedded code. As such, the map packs must be downloaded for a person to be able to play the mode.

With 'ordinary' custom maps, they will never contain the unique mapfilters that a modder may have implemented - this is what is causing problems for me with the map freedom feature.
The best compromise I can see is to not modify the original missionsmd.pkt, and to just provide a modified one with the UMP/UMPDP that makes all TA maps standard maps. This still means, however, that custom TA-only maps will not work in a 'map freedom' mod.
Ever wondered what the hell is going on?
Believe me friend you're not the only one.
