Thanks, since it seems that most crashes occur these days on custom campaigns, they hang the servers. I would already be happy with a "kill <fork>" or "restart <fork>"
Ofcourse a option to have "no response from fork in xx minutes, resetting to default map" would also help, although you wont see anymore which map crashed it.
