I never play on LAN. Last coop was with Quakespasm which worked suitably well. However, the server didn't seem to use the new protocol, so we had disappearing entities in Masque. Could be Spirit configured it wrong, or something else. Performance-wise it seemed fine.
Holy Shit

I have a plan to deal with "too many monsters disappear in coop" like Masque of the Red Death.
Will test this tomorrow morning in some live coop action.
(Involves using "antiwallhack" for enhanced thinning out of entities sent from server to client. I think too many entities is the cause of this, if I recall not only are monsters disappearing but you will get no sound either as sounds are cut-off first).
Actually, if Mark V is the listen server, just type in "sv_cullentities 2" in console and anti-wallhack will thin out all entities with a strict visibility test.
Which is what I'm going to see if helps in a "all benefits, no drawbacks" way. (anti-wallhack is a bit a CPU intensive -- so while I know this should make monsters not disappear, I'm not sure if it might not have a framerate side effect on such a high entity count ... )
Thanks, I'm Paying Attention With My One Good Eye...

PM and I only come to life occasionally, we are editing zombies sometimes able to whip another chunk of flesh at the larger project, but then going back to dormant mode. Peering up from my Vault of Zin, I would definitely want to address this since I plan on having full coop support for the eventual final DRAKE. Indeed, one of the few excuses I can imagine people having for replaying my reconfigured maps with some new ones as a "replacement Quake" is coop with PM's more challenging skill levels.

Results regarding coop and Masque of Red Death with sv_cullentities 2 = it runs a tad slow and large entities like door tend to get culled when they shouldn't (disappearing doors).
Part #2 can easily be fixed. Not sure how to fix the "runs a bit slow" part.

I know you like corpses and heads everywhere, but I'm thinking the only reasonable fix is adding corpse removal to your progs.
Although with Masque of the Red Death, someone could just use a corpse removal progs (wasn't the reason that -hipnotic was recommended for that map due to this? Although I see no evidence of that working, if so ...)

At least if the coop cvar is 1. Single player isn't impacted, just clients connected to player that is running as the server.

How Often
do you check what you've made in the editor in the actual game?
I find myself doing a fast compile every 5-15 minutes... sometimes even after changing just a single thing!

Me too doing this after adding one single brush, or even a light source.
Just for the look at it, strange..

I was doing that during my first mapping ages... and I tend to make it less often (not because I am not mapping that much nowadays...eh !), as I was gaining self-confidence in my mapping skill.. I guess it is what people generally call "experience"..
In anyway, compiling the map quite often is good to detect very early the map issues (leakage / HOMs / etc..), while it can be perceived as a waste of time...though...
I think each mapper has its own methodology ;)

Many of the level downloads on your site don't work! You don't happen to have released any map sources, do you?
