Summary
Insurgency: Sandstorm has many different maps with various scenarios or gamemodes. Each gamemode has configurations that can modify how mechanics occur on the server, such as changing wave size, round duration, or altering bot settings for multiplayer modes. By adjusting these settings, players can fine-tune coop gamemodes such as checkpoint.
