    Whenever someone disconnect or reconnect to the Judge all the already connected players are forced to re-download the map. The "icons" are still visible but the map goes to the grey/white/black placeholder screen. Any help would be appreciated.

    It does seem like a waste of bandwidth and time to force all the players to download the map and token images again when only one player disconnects or reconnects to the game.

    I know just enough about programing to be dangerous so take this with a large grain of salt, couldn't d20pro creat a hash code(example md5) for the map and if the force reload happens it check the player hash code and if it matches no need to redownload?

    Hail and well met Provos,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. This behavior is new to v3.0.0 but fortunately and I'm already working on it. Look for a fix to this (and many other minor things) in v3.0.1 out soon.
