timeafterfirstfinish - different for maps

[acp___(PL)]

On my server I have maps that have persisted for one hour and maps persisted for one minut.

I would like to set a parameter "*timeafterfirstfinish" in file meta.xml for each map individual!

I'm too stupid to write script myself, so the only thing that occurred to me add the appropriate lines in the resource race (resorce included MTA:SA 1.0):

What I doing wrong?

What is the difference?

It is difficult to find on Google and the forum of individual characters: "#" or "*" ...

You shouldn't try to search on Google for MTA scripting related stuff...

thanks for help

I was again analyze the race_serwer.lua and ...

line: 7

function cacheGameOptions()
g_GameOptions = {}
g_GameOptions.timeafterfirstfinish  = getNumber('race.timeafterfirstfinish',30) * 1000
g_GameOptions.hurrytime				= getNumber('race.hurrytime',15) * 1000
g_GameOptions.defaultrespawntime	= getNumber('race.respawntime',5) * 1000
(...)
g_GameOptions.timeafterfirstfinish_map_can_override		= getNumber('race.timeafterfirstfinish_map_can_override',30) * 1000

or now I think:

g_GameOptions.timeafterfirstfinish_map_can_override		= getBool('race.timeafterfirstfinish_map_can_override',true)

-- Set timeafterfirstfinish from g_GameOptions if not defined in the map, or map override not allowed
if not map.timeafterfirstfinish or not g_GameOptions.timeafterfirstfinish_map_can_override then
	g_MapOptions.timeafterfirstfinish = g_GameOptions.timeafterfirstfinish
end

g_SavedMapSettings.timeafterfirstfinish		= map.timeafterfirstfinish

Nobody can help me?
