4. disable other functions depending on your card age

5. start spring.exe

I don't do it that way, I just:
- Keep the default setting
- Run SpringClient
- Register my name
- Login with name
- Talk in lobby and host a game
- Wait till people join and launch the game

And it works very well.

well i hosted lot of games ... and all above is sumarized to minimize issues with players ...

i really missing lobby stuff like:

kick player out of server room
force ready to player
lock server rooom (yah people joining even max is 4 i got 8 in :)
save server setttings

i had kick player in, but a .net bug forced me to remove it. i will add a "close battle room" feature sometime in the future... we should have a section devoted to list of desired features so i know what to work on. keep the ideas coming...

See the development forum for my suggestion of a message of the day information thingy in the main lobby.
