Trying to understand autodownload
#3
nothing to do with autodownload itself.

some maps are not compatible with AC 1.2 and server owners don't bother converting.
(which, again, has nothing to do with autdownload, the new packaging structure was implemented for different reasons).

/getmap works the same as before (download the current map, FROM THE CURRENT AC SERVER)
/getmap $arg1, however, is new, and will download map $arg1 FROM AKIMBO SERVERS

If you're having troubles with maps that were uploaded on akimbo it's likely because some of the files were not uploaded with the map when it was validated, despite our efforts to test every map.
I'd say, please report it in this case, but you need to make sure first that you download akimbo's version of the map, doing :
/getmap ac_polar (for example)
rather than /getmap on a server playing polar, because doing that will (as it used to) download the map from the current AC server you're playing on.
