Automatic Vote Map Cycle Remastered

Description
This a remastered version of an extremely lightweight, easy and automatic map voting addon that supports any map and any gamemode!

What has changed from the original?
- Complete visual overhaul (this is the one I based it off of, if you're curious)
- Colored chat
- Fixed about two billion spelling errors
- Some internal addon changes to assure security and flexibility


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


INSTRUCTIONS
After you've subscribed to this addon, it should generate a mapcycle.txt in your garrysmod/data/ folder.

Edit that file to your needs in the following format:
gm_flatgrass sandbox
gm_construct darkrp
gm_mobenix_v3 prop_hunt
gm_botmap sandbox


Alternatively, you can use the console command automap_addnextmap <map> <gamemode> to add maps to the map cycle from in-game.

Once you've added enough maps, you can use !nominate to specify what maps you want to see in the next map vote and !rtv to start it.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


PLAYER CHAT COMMANDS
!nominate <map> <gamemode> -- Nominate <map> on <gamemode> to appear in the next map vote
!rtv -- Vote to start a map change


ADMIN CONSOLE COMMANDS
automap_setextend 3 -- Set the number of extends left
automap_startmapvote 0/1 -- Force-start a vote, with or without the option to extend

I keep typing sv_automap_advertise 0 but it WON'T SHUT UP!!

Ive been trying to change the amount of maps you can have in the cycle but for some reason it won't change.

Is there a way to delete maps from the map cycle?
I tried going to mapcycle.txt and backspacing the unwanted maps and it didn't work.

Is there any way to turn off the box on the bottom of the screen for all players on my server? Or at least move it?

for those with an issue of it not creating a mapcycle.txt:
manually make one. The format inside is just:
mapname gamemode

that's it
