how to set the automatic disconnect timer?

So once in a while my internet will go out for 5-20 seconds. For a 5 sec internet lost is okay because Spring will reconnect but, not for a 20 sec one. So is there any way i can set Spring to keep on trying to reconnect for a longer period of time of 12 sec?

Reconnection timer (assuming you mean the ingame one) is set to 30 seconds (your IP must not change.

public ip or private ip? when i do get disconnected there is a little bit of text in the chat box saying something like disconnect 12 sec. but is there any way i could have keep on trying for a 60sec?

public ip or private ip?

Unless you have some particularly magical NAT implementation, both must not change.

If your modem resets you'll get a new IP address unless you ask your provider for a static IP connection. They usually charge for this.

Although now that you think of it, it doesn't really need to mean the end of the game. It's still in sync for all clients. Maybe the host could check incoming connections for one sending a code that gets generated and transmitted to each player at the beginning of the game? (feature request)
