Mission duration time designation

[skywalker22]

In the servers list, would it be possible to change the Elapsed time with Time remaining? So that there will be the count down time from max to zero. 

This now is pretty ambiguous, since there is no where written the max time of each server. It happened lots of times to me, came to a server, and I got (let's say) the message "5 minutes remaining". So I just left the server.

I feel that is mostly a request for those who run servers to at least put a hint towards such in the descriptions of the missions.

Is there even a generalised system of determining mission duration? I seem to see most servers running their own scripts to switch missions or reset servers at set times or when certain 'victory conditions' are met.

Unfortunately not, there isn't a "default" system to make server restart, so basically every server admin implements its own reboot/restart method, and they are really a tons of way to do that, since we also make some activity on persistence files, random weather and other stuff....

I guess it's not really an easy task and also it's now almost impossible to make a standard method that works for every server.

To avoid this problem for example, I normally use fixed reboot every 6 hours at given time schedule ( trying to make during dinner/lunch etc... ) so players can know exactly when the server will reboot.
