How to permanently save maps added from MX on a restart?

Hi all, just set up a server with UASECO. It's running great but I do have a issue.
Maps added by /admin add <mx ID> will disappear if I need to restart the server, they will not stay in the map list. I have noticed that they are downloaded (they exist in the UserData/Maps/MX/ directory of the server), but the track list will go back to the default number of tracks that were manually specified in the GameData/Maps/MatchSettings/maplist.txt file.
I'm sure I've missed a simple setting somewhere that will fix this, any help is much appreciated.
Edit:
To clarify: this is upon a full restart of both UASECO and the Maniaplanet server.

Hi, I think its these settings in UASECO/config/uaseco.xml
Code: Select all
<!--
Maplist used by the dedicated server, typical located in "UserData/Maps/MatchSettings/"
//-->
<default_maplist>maplist.txt</default_maplist>
<writemaplist_random>true</writemaplist_random>
<!-- If you use an external tool (e.g. "AdminServ") to add maps to the dedicated server, then have to set this to 'true', otherwise set this to 'false'. -->
<automatic_refresh_maplist>false</automatic_refresh_maplist>

No, that's not.
You have to write "/admin writemaplist" after you added a map and you want to save it into the maplist.
Alternate method is to autosave the maplist everytime you added a map, just edit config/rasp.xml:
Code: Select all
<!--
Set to filename to enable autosaving matchsettings upon every map switch,
e.g. 'autosave_matchsettings.txt'.
Gets stored at "UserData/Maps/MatchSettings/" directory.
//-->
<autosave_matchsettings></autosave_matchsettings>
Just add your current filename (look at "config/UASECO.xml" at <default_maplist>).

Thanks to both of you, works great.
Bit off topic, but where is the server map time set? I've tried adjusting it in \GameServer\GameData\Scripts\Modes\TrackMania\TimeAttack.Script.txt, by changing the setting S_TimeLimit, but the server still plays maps for 5 minutes. Is there somewhere that UASECO overrides this setting?
Thanks.

Yes, there is. Take a look into config/modescript_settings.xml, there you can setup all the fine stuff.
