Hi-

I'm the guy who broke this and it is now fixed and will be out in the
next TF2 update. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The bright side is that after the update you can now put the same map in
multiple spots in the mapcycle.txt file. So you could have a map cycle
file that looks like this if you want:

        cp_granary
        ctf_2fort
        cp_gravelpit
        ctf_2fort
        cp_dustbowl
        cp_granary
        cp_well
        ctf_2fort
        tc_hydro

This was a longstanding bug that I fixed before the last update, but the
fix ended up causing the "random next map issue". Sorry again for the
trouble and thanks for your patience.

The map cycle problem (for now) can be fixed temporarily by putting two
of
each of the names of the maps in the mapcycle. This was answered by a
Valve
rep the other day. I've never noticed the same map played twice on my
server.
