SkipMapSelect=yes
NextScenario=Maps/Missions/GDI2A.MAP
AltNextScenario=Maps/Missions/GDI9C.MAP

With SkipMapSelect=yes, winning the mission skips the map selection screen. The campaign advances to NextScenario, or to AltNextScenario when global variable 1 is set. At the default, the map selection screen opens and the player chooses the next mission.

The named map must be one of the next missions the campaign’s map selection data offers from the current stage, and the campaign moves to that stage. NextScenario covers what happens when the name is not among them.

A mission that also sets OneTimeOnly or EndOfGame ends the campaign instead, and this key has no effect.
