The Extends Available Feature

[Fake Ninja]

Is there a way to find out how many map extends we have left?
I found out that !extendsleft doesn't work in this fine ZE server.
If the map voting finishes as the map extending part wins over a random map, it should tell players how many map extensions we have left.
For example: [SV] : The current map has been extended (50-100% votes.)
[SV] : Extends left : 0-2

i don't see the advantage of using this ?

It's actually helpful for people who want to know how many extends remain in a map because once map voting ends, it'll tell players how many extends are left.

I've seen this feature on Unloze's CSS ZE server. So I was thinking if this server can have it too. :^) It's actually useful to see how many extends are left in certain maps.

Check the number of times and what is it useful for?
What happens when know that?

It's not.

It happens when map voting is finished. When the map is extended, it'll have 2 more extends and it'll say "[SV] Extends Left: 2".

does not mean that.
i know its function, and i don't know benefits even we have that.
so i want to know benefits when i knew number of extends.

The maximum of the map extends in PSE is 4. This is only counting the Extend Map option in map voting. I also agree with urucy that it's really not that necessary to have it. because most of a player really doesn't care about that much.

otherwise, you can check it by open up the console and type "mp_timelimit" and it will show how many minutes that available in for the map. The first map starts with "mp_timelimit 15" which is 15 minutes, each time that players vote to extend it will plus more 15 minutes and the console will show "mp_timelimit 30" which is 30 minutes.

If the maximum of the map extends is four that means 4x 15 minutes = 60 minutes or 1 hour.
Plus with the map start with 15 minutes become 15 + 60 = 75 minutes or 1 hour and 15 minutes.

just to remind you that this is the extends number is for most of the map in PSE, some of the maps might have less or more extends.
