Player will lose their levels if they disconnect then reconnect on the first map of an episode

[Teflon1]

If a player is on the first map of an episode (like E2M1a) and disconnects for whatever reason, then reconnects to the server while the server is still on the first map of an episode, they will be reset back to level 1.

You're talking about the stats?

[Teflon1]

Yeah.

It's going to do that on any level. But, there is a coop password that can be set so you can save your experience points. When you reconnect it logs in and you are able to respend the points again.

use coop_password to set a coop password to register on the server (this is saved in plaintext, so don't use a secure password you use for sensitive data) and either reconnect or type coop_register in console to register immediately.
