For now OLX always reloads map for a new game, and i haven't found a way to change this behavior. On original liero you could disable "regenerate level" and all dirt that was dug out in previous game would still be gone in new game. And i think it's a nice feature, but better yet would be ability to start in "empty" map, where all dirt is cleared, i think it could be useful for some maps.

These are multiple feature requests:

I think to allow this in a clean way, we first have to generalize everything a bit and have it more the Gusanos way, i.e. the game always running and in background, even with lobby. And then there could be some commands on the server to empty all dirt. And also to reload the map. And maybe also options for that to do those automatically. But if the user have those options disabled and doesn't do anything, it is like suggested. The advantage this way is that this behavior is straight forward then.

So this should be delayed until we have that.
