add a command so we can see which map is next for example: /nextmap.

That would kill the element of surprise associated with not knowing beforehand the next map. I think this feature is unnecessary.

I think that knowing which map is next could be better then just waiting for 1 hour for the next map and for it to be nsa...

I second HawayiJahz' statement. Picture this: (Disclaimer: Any similarity to actual persons, quidos, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental.):

Code: [Select]
[06/11/2020] [10:04:48 pm] <@PBBot1> *** Quido killed DonaldTrump (Distance: 152 | Weapon: Sniper Rifle)
[06/11/2020] [10:04:48 pm] <@PBBot2> *** The President was killed by a Civilian!
[06/11/2020] [10:04:48 pm] <@PBBot3> *** BAD Team has won the round! (The President was killed)
[06/11/2020] [10:04:59 pm] <@PBBot2> *** New map is loading: North San Andreas | GM Scripts Loading...
[06/11/2020] [10:04:59 pm] <@PBBot3> *** Finished: Map, Class location, Vehicles, Pickups and Objects was loaded!
[06/11/2020] [10:05:04 pm] <@PBBot2> [11] Quido is now Civilian.
[06/11/2020] [10:04:46 pm] <@PBBot2> [Civilian ID: 11] Quido: Well, f*ck this map!
[06/11/2020] [10:05:04 pm] <@PBBot1> [11] *** Quido left the game. (Left) + [Report: X: -2362 , Y: 1010 , Z: 51 | H: 15 , A: 0 ]
Its fun to see these reactions, isn't it?  ::)

I don't see how adding /nextmap would change this. You would still wait 1 hour and the next map would still be NSA. If you were just hanging around the civilian spawn waiting for the map to change, a better use of your time would be to either do something within the game or just quit until you see the map has changed on Discord or IRC.

If /nextmap is added and you see NSA when you type it, are you just going to leave the game because you don't like that NSA is the next map or are you going to continue playing until NSA has loaded? As Glen so elegantly crafted, vent your frustration when it loads and quit, continue enjoying the game until it does so.

Sadly, they are right Sindacco. This suggestion will drag down player count when they don't like the next map.
