MED Remove reconnect timer

[Walt]

Your In-Game Name:
Walt

Suggestion:
Remove the timer to reconnect when you have connection issues.

Addons Needed (workshop link):
No

Reason:
I personally have WiFi issues quite frequently and it usually takes me about a minute or minute and a half for my connection to be stable again. The timer on the HUD, when you have connectivity issues, makes you reconnect after 45 seconds. Then it makes me have to restart GMOD to be able to rejoin the server and can take up to 5 or so minutes to join back on. This is mostly a quality-of-life change that can help people out on the server who have a bad internet provider.​

The following Suggestion has been Accepted.
Having reviewed the way the crash-screen works I can agree the 45s timer can be pretty annoying. As a temporary measure we will turning up the auto-reconnect to be significantly higher. This will allow us some more time to properly remove the timer from the button as well as try and add a delay before the crash-screen pops up (so it isn't triggered by momentary connection drops/lag-spikes).

Apologies for the delay in the reply.
