People its not rocket science

Why not just have the default state of the server to be private/offline?

 

That way you could have a "friends-only" game and not be public, put a toggle of somesort to go public.

 

Right now IMHO it's best to have all public so real world testing can be done.

I would like an ingame toggle to switch between private and public without rehosting the game. That way if people meant to put private but they accidentally put public, or vice-versa, they could just toggle the setting instead of having to boot everyone out first.

@ryouryou,

 

I have wondered why this functionality was never included myself when hosting games.

I agree with this at the same time but it is also possible to just start your own server as well if you want it public, people will join. I didn't know at first I could switch the option of Friends only or how many players because I didn't notice there was a scroll bar. So for awhile I kicked people out lol. I would also kick people out who I saw would just come in and start grabbing **** that wasn't theirs. Taking my bunny traps and bunnies and then resetting the trap a completely random place... but that's just my experience lol.
