Obviously not. You have no clue what you're talking about.


I used to think it meant, "gamemode exit." But then where is the restarting?
EDIT: Potassium's 'execute' theory would fit more.

I thought it was gamemode execute

I just realised that it is in fact GameMode Exit.

Think about it logically. Typically, GMX is actually used to exit the current gamemode and run the next in the list (the list of gamemodes in your server.cfg). This is also precisely what our GameModeExit function does.

EDIT: Also, why did we all agree on "execute" when one of our most used callbacks was OnGameModeExit? We are all idiots! XD

It is "gamemode exit". Once the gamemode, e.g. gamemode0 has exited it starts the next, e.g. gamemode1. If there is no next gamemode it starts gamemode0. Because we all only use 1 gamemode we use game more as a restart command, but it really isn't.

edit: I should have read all the posts and not only the original post... D'oh!
