Map-specific gamesetup settings — at Version 3

Description (last modified by elexis)

It would be really awesome if maps could specify custom gamesetup options.

Use cases:

  • Scripted enemy strength on Survival Of The Fittest and Danubius
  • Water level rising speed for Extinct Volcano
  • Which of the 10+ map variations of the Unknown map
  • Player placement options #4110
  • Which character we want to represent in a specific scenario
  • ...

As of Phab:D322 (gamesetup option unification), a new gamesetup option only requires a small hunk to add a new option. The JSON file of the map could specify the short mapname_gamesetup.js file to be loaded (just like it can specify a trigger script file)
