The campaign advances to this mission in place of NextScenario when global flag 1 is set at the moment the player wins. A campaign can use it to fork on something the player did, because any trigger that sets global flag 1 before the win redirects the advance.

The key applies only where NextScenario does, after a won mission that sets SkipMapSelect. A mission that shows the map selection screen ignores both keys.

NextScenario covers how the name is resolved against the campaign’s progression data and what happens when it matches nothing.
