I have a couple questions

Lately my internet has been down a lot, so I often play with bots. However, I have reached a couple problems.

First, how do I enter passwords for the bots, because when I reach the next map in my cycle it will say they have an invalid password.

Secondly, how do I make different options for each map, instead of setting options for the whole cycle. I like some maps to be low gravity and some to be normal, some of them with 24 bots, some with 6, etc.

Bot should be added (connected) w/o password. At least, I have never heard of any case where bots would have needed a password. Anyway, check the 'q3config.cfg' (and 'autoexec.cfg' if exists) text files in the 'baseq3' folder. If you find any setting with the word 'password' in it, just erase the whole line. It may help. As a last resort, delete any '.cfg' file(s) in the folder and regenerate your settings from within the game menu.

As for individual settings on each map, AFAIK it cannot be done in Q3A when you do automatic map rotation. Maybe you (we) should try to tell the ioq3 developers. It would be a nice new feature for the game.

Actually you can if you don't go all out (because cvar strings may not be longer than 255 chars).

set m1 "set g_gametype 3; set g_gravity 800; map q3dm7; set nextmap vstr m2"
set m2 "set g_gametype 0; set g_gravity 400; map q3dm17; set nextmap vstr m1"
vstr m1
