[SUGGESTION] Feature - Download map in online

#1
Hello,
Will there be a feature to see if the map is already present in the game during online game, for those who have a small connection, or they are limited in quantity (GB per month) would be useful not?

I'm not quite sure what are you asking for, but there's already a map download feature. The map is downloaded once and then stored in data/dlcache.

I think he wants to be able to see from the server list if he has all the maps that are available on the server to avoid possible downloads..
He can talk the talk, but can he caulk the caulk?

I think at the very least there should be a checkbox to "DOWNLOAD MAPS" that defaults to being checked in xonotic under the "Network" tab.

If a player does not want to download new maps he can uncheck the checkbox.

Yeah, that'd be best option. Counter-Strike has it, and OpenArena (i think) too. If there's a cvar for it, it should be on the menu.

In Tremulous a window pops up if you don't have a map, asking whether you want to download the map or disconnect from the server.

I'm not sure whether this is a better or worse solution than the one posted above though.
