Players Stuck In Black Ad Loading Screen #162

Describe the bug
When hosting a mission on a dedicated server the mission loads, but when it gets to the black loading screen with the ads the progress bar never appears and players all get stuck at the black ad screen and cannot do anything to disconnect. Players are forced to close their game in order to back out. If players wait long enough in the screen eventually the mission will fail.

To Reproduce
Simply connect to the server and wait for the black ad loading screen and players will get stuck.

Expected behaviour
I expected players to see the loading progress bar below the ad image and then be loaded into the game but they just get stuck.

From what i remember, this occurs when the server has a bunch of mods that slow down player init during server join. It's because players aren't getting initialised fast enough because of all the additional initialisation they're going through with mods.

I'll need to double check the logic, i vaguely recall some timeout being set somewhere. if so.... might be good to pair this with #183 and/or do something extra like a forced endMission when the player is not loading in faster enough (i.e. provide an explicit error message)

i'll have a think.
