Description

Currently, we read planetwars maps from disk. This is not nice at all. Instead, the map should be put in an configuration event (for example the startgame event). This way the match owner has complete control over the map, the map will be in the log, and we no longer require files to be present on the game server.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the startgame event is structured and where maps are currently read from disk. Add map data to the startgame event payload and remove disk based map loading.
