Why does the fueldump map reload?

Why can’t the map just restart? It takes some players minutes to reload a map.

Simply because your joining servers which are using campaign mode and not objective mode.

Campaign Mode in the final version will load in 3 different maps but since the test has only one map it keeps reloading the same one. Still a lot of servers use this mode because they like the exp to carry over on the 3 rounds

Objective Mode is played on one map so dosnt need to reload it and exp is reset on each map restart.

Stopwatch mode also dosnt reload the map

XP won’t carry over? how will people ever get to level 4 on one round?

It does seem like a reasonable request that the code check to see if the “next” map is the same as the “previous” map, regardless of game-type. If so, use previous map data. It may be more difficult than adding a couple of lines of code but I think that the benefit to the game at least warrants consideration.

They won’t, that is the point.

If you want to make the most of the XP system you have to play in a campaign mode game. It is one of the features of that game type that XP is carried over rather than restarted.
