  Thread from last year, I'm guessing there isn't going to be an adjustment for this :<

  I'm afraid I don't understand the problem; are you saying you want to play in co-op but without the co-op weapons and things? It is the mapper who dictates which pickups are available in each game mode and simply spawning the pickups from singleplayer instead can potentially break the map; imagine a situation involving locked doors which automatically close behind the player -- multiple keys may be needed in multiplayer.

  The poster is referring to the fact that the Doom and Heretic Iwad maps MP flagged items are placed for DM.
  
  Given that those two games have no separate DM and Co-op flags, those MP items appear when playing Co-op and as a result severely unbalance the maps. i.e on Map01 of Doom2 there are two MP flagged BFG9000's right next to the co-op starts.
  
  Though it's not completely black and white as some of the Iwad maps also throw a few extra monsters in on MP and one could debate as to whether they are meant for Co-op or DM.

  Thanks for the clarification. In that case I think the only way we can address this is to provide a plethora of server configuration options which allow the admin to suppress spawning of certain items (via the game rules mechanism).
