    For the less active players:

    The number of maps mc-war has is huge and growing, and it's nearly impossible to remember them all. So, what I propose is a /note [mapname] {note}. It could be useful for remembering certain tactics. For example:
    /note nuketown house has good camping spot.
    And
    /note Dhahran use auto to nuke

    What do you think?

    Or you could write it down on a piece of paper. . .

    Hmm, 50+ maps would make it a long piece of paper. Much easier to implement and use digitally.

    I'm just saying it seems a bit useless, but it does sound ike a pretty cool idea.

    I'm staying neutral.

    Notes are easy to lose and it does seem like a good way to remember maps.

    However, writing it down is always an option (as potatoesparkle said)

    I lose pieces of paper, and since I play with full screen and pandora on, digital notes actually lag my computer.

    Sure. I could play the map then write a little log on it.

    Not a bad idea, but it doesn't seem worth the time and effort, especially when you could use a variety of programs to do the same thing.

    I agree write it your notes on a piece of paper and since certain maps play more than others, you won't have to keep notes for every map.

    Easy:

    In your onCommand:
    Code:
            if (commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("note") && sender instanceof Player){
                Player player = (Player) sender;
                if (args.length == 1){
                    // Get your config variable
    
                    player.sendMessage(config.get("Notes." + args[0]));
                }else {
                    String fullnote = "";
                    for (int i = 1; i <= args.length; i++){
                        fullnote = fullnote + args[i];
                    }
    
                    // Whatever you do to get your player configs
                    config.set("Notes." + args[0], fullnote);
                }
            }
    
    Also, I have both, but it still slows down my computer.

    You mean you haven't memorized all the maps yet?
    I've only been playing for a month or so, and I already know whats maps are what.

    I know most of the popular maps, but anyways it's more the names that I have trouble correlating with the memory of the map. This isn't just for me, it's for all players new to the server as well.

    Eh, the server pretty much only rotates 10 maps or so, from what I've seen.
    I swear, it's always the same ones.

    Seems like it, as there aren't very many maps that can support 35+ players. Why not the /note idea? I've shown the note code implementation, it's < 10 lines.

    From what I've been reading, the notes are per-player.
    That means having to make it hook into the SQL database and putting it in there, and then having an extra column in it for every single player, which totals around 600,000...
    It's not as simple as you make it out to be.
