* As the host (Atlas/player 1), to reset your progress so that your testing partner can experience the story in the Hub from the beginning, use the console to enter in {{code|mp_mark_all_maps_incomplete}}. You won't lose your achievements or your accumulated stats (portals placed, footsteps taken, etc.), but after resetting the level with {{spoiler|{{code|changelevel mp_coop_lobby_2}}}} (or {{code|3}}), all of the test chambers will be closed off and you'll hear GLaDOS's lines again. If your friend was further along with ''some'' of the sections done, you can use {{code|mp_mark_course_complete}} and then 0, 1, 2, or 3, depending on what their last completed section was, to make your completion progress roughly equal. Finally, use {{code|changelevel}} again to load the map with the changes applied. | * As the host (Atlas/player 1), to reset your progress so that your testing partner can experience the story in the Hub from the beginning, use the console to enter in {{code|mp_mark_all_maps_incomplete}}.
