Layers are specific subdivisions of Squad maps. Within each map there are multiple layers, each with different objectives (game modes) and layouts although it is possible for layers to have similar properties. For example Al Basrah AAS v1 and Al Basrah AAS v2 have the same flag layout, but they have different set factions making them different layers.
Enabling Layer Rotation
Before setting a list of layers, you will need to enable it in server.cfg and define that type of rotation that the server will follow.
- Access your control panel and Stop your server.
- Go to Files > Config Files.
- Click Server.cfg.
- Set
MapRotationModetoLayerList_Randomizedfor randomised rotation orLayerListfor a set order.
- Click the Save button and Start your server.
Setting A Layer List
Now that you've enabled layer rotation, the order of layers will need to be defined. Maps will progress through the list from top to bottom if randomisation is not enabled.
- Access your control panel and Stop your server.
- Go to Files > Config Files.
- Click LayerRotation.cfg.
- Set the order of layers with one Layer ID per line.
- Click the Save button and Start the server.
