SetGameType
From Multi Theft Auto: Wiki
This function sets a string containing a name for the game type. This should be the game-mode that is active, for example "Capture The Flag" or "Deathmatch". This is then displayed in the server browser and external server browsers.
It should be noted that mapmanager handles this automatically for gamemodes that utilise the map/gamemode system.
