Insurgency: Sandstorm MapCycle Builder

Build your server's map rotation visually. Select maps, scenarios, factions, and lighting — generates a ready-to-use MapCycle.txt and the required Game.ini snippet.

Map Rotation

0 maps — ~0 min h/cycle

Scenario & Faction Reference click to expand
Push Security vs Insurgents — specify attacker side via Faction
Frontline Security vs Insurgents — use Auto or omit faction

Firefight Team deathmatch — Security vs Insurgents
Domination Objective hold — Security vs Insurgents

MapCycleFile=MapCycle.txt

Entries: 0 maps in rotation

Est. cycle time: ~0 min hours (at 30 min/map)

Place MapCycle.txt in Insurgency/Config/Server/ and add the Game.ini snippet to Insurgency/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/Game.ini.

Tip: The scenario string format is Scenario_Map_Mode_Faction. Omit the faction for modes that don't use it (Frontline, Firefight). Use Auto to let the server pick the attacking side.
