You must manually download this in order to update it to support BLT2.
This mod is made by gir489 and not me. I just wanted to upload it here since it was originally found on Github and I found it very useful.

Tired of getting suddenly paused on a crucial battle against a dozer or sometimes waiting up to 5 minutes at max for the other guy to join?
This mod will disable the in-game pausing while someone is joining while you host, letting you and clients continue playing the game.

Known issues:
There is a high chance of it causing desync to the clients already in the game while someone else is joining.
I think this also makes their loading times slightly longer.
