The visible queue contains already selected maps; preference changes affect later selections.

PoolRotater keeps a visible playlist ahead of the current map. .queue describes the selected map and upcoming entries. “Future picks” means maps selected after those existing entries, not immediate replacement of the entire playlist.

Mania styles, source selection, and difficulty votes affect future selections while preserving the visible queue. If you choose Jack and the next queued map is Technical, that alone does not indicate a broken command.

A successful skip vote advances the current map safely. A successful replay vote puts the last completed map next while preserving the upcoming picks. Active gameplay is protected from queue-edit requests that would alter an already started match.

See map selection and unexpected styles.

The advertised player controls choose a source, style, difficulty, skip, or replay. They do not provide a general command to insert an arbitrary map link. For a broader selection, try the appropriate Variety command. .map is a details command in Mania, not a song-request command.

After .style jack in Mania, check .queue. A map already queued before the change keeps its place, even if it has another style.

Source and difficulty changes do not rewrite the visible queue. Replay targets the preceding completed map and protects active gameplay.
