Description

The current gameType is limited to a few current options. If the players mission that is created does not fit into the provided categories then the gametype "Unknown" is the only option.

Possible sollution would be the addition of a "Misc" option, or an even better solution would be the ability for the play to be able to define his/her custom gameType as a string.

eg1)

    gameType = MISC;

eg2)

gameType = "My Custom gameType";

Number of available game types is limited intentionally to prevent inventing new, highly customized modes. That would go against what types are for, and that is easy and understandable categorization for players.

List of available types was recently updated, the new options might suit your mission better than the old types (which remained unchanged since 2001):
