Hmm, but launching it through Steam GUI itself requires buying another copy of the game..
Also it won't let you use the server automation scripts and restarts, since someone needs to go into steam manually and launch it each time
Or do you mean we only need to do that if changing hosts/IP addresses?
We have a static IP - does that mean the favourites trick is all we need to do and it will appear every time it restarts since it's already in favourites we don't need to add it each time?
