Hmm I think I launch my forks with +map l4d_hospital_01 +exec server##.cfg (whatever the hospital name is), with another map name at the end of the server##.cfg file (tried map xxx and changelevel xxx), and it keeps hospital. I finally made a separate launch command to have vs servers next to coop servers
