Some more improvements....
tl;dr
Better server updates, no more select/copy/paste from chat like a caveman for the SDR connect, MOTDs with reservation info.
1. We changed the way we do server updates. Previously we checked the server version just as your reservation started, and told it to update itself if it was out of date. This was annoying for two reasons. First this meant the server had to fully shutdown and restart to get the update from steam, which can be slow due to congestion. It can also overload the machine hosting the gameservers with the disk and network getting trashed when many gameservers update at once.
Second, sometimes the gameservers took multiple restarts/updates to fully get to the latest version. So when that happened, after waiting for your reservation to launch you got greeted with the "Server is running an older version of the game" message.
So now we handle all the updates as soon as they come out. We stop making new reservations on servers that are not yet updated and start updating a few servers per machine at once. Games in progress are not disturbed and can finish their match on the old version of TF2.
2. There's now an in-game menu to switch between a direct connection and Valve's VPN connection, SDR. Type !sdr to open this menu.
3. Added MOTDs to all servers. This MOTD shows who made the reservation, its setttings and has convenient buttons to copy the connect, SDR connect and STV connect to your clipboard. If it's your reservation and you are logged in you can also control and RCON the server from this screen.
4. Fixed broken redirects after logging in. The site forgot where you were after signing in with steam, now it remembers where you were and redirects you back like it's 2011.
