How long does it take for the game to restart?

If someone progresses thru the maps before I hop on the server, how long do I have to wait until the game restarts to the beginning?

It doesn't go back base1 automatically. If you hop on, find that you're all alone, and wish to start from the beginning, it's best to just key in the noclip cheat and then rush through to the exit of all the maps until you get to the makron boss level, then noclip into one of the escape pods and it'll restart back from base1. I wouldn't attempt that move if someone else is on the server though unless they agree to it. That would just be a dick "krenz" type move.

Unless Recycled is there. I think he's got admin status for the coop servers. He might agree to start it over if it's just the two of you there. But he usually likes to tinker with the gravity settings, you may or may not like that.

There's a few loyal Coop players and they all prefer the sv_gravity 400 setting. Probably because I relentlessly indoctrinated them into the benefits and fun factor of said setting. However if someone connects and asks for normal gravity, I will always oblige them. Until, of course, they realize the folly of their choice and are assimilated into the flying coop cult.

Well that's different because you're an admin on that server if I remember correctly.
