View Recently joined servers
I thought i would suggest a place players can go in "browse public servers" and view the recent servers you have join and whether the server is still online or not and stuff like that....
I like to jump into random servers and help but when i want to log back into the server later and i forget the name, its hard to find it again..
Thoughts?

Re: View Recently joined servers
or the ability to favorite a server
Add list of favorites servers and last played servers
Hi, it be nice to add list of favorites servers and last played servers. Will be greate if once entered the server password has been saved
Re: Add list of favorites servers and last played servers
Yes. I thought about this too and I think I suggested it on my thread about Multiplayer..
It would be nice to have a little box next to the server to add to favourites and also see if the server is online or not on the favorites list.
It would also be nice that the game ordered servers by number of players by default.
An option could be to "Show server name on top of the window" to know what server you are playing. Also maybe allow custom colors and characters on server names to make them more easy to differentiate..

Recent played servers
In multiplayer, it can sometimes be hard to find back to the servers you played last time, so a recent played servers area in the list or column to filter by would be a great addition to the game and make ppl go back to the servers where you already where a part of before.

Re: Recent played servers
i must have searched bad, cause i didn't find the other post in there that gives the same idea... but i see i'm not alone about my suggestion then
Show last 5 Server played in Multiplayer.
TL;DR
Add a overview about the last servers i joined online.What ?
I suggest a ading a small overview on browsig public games to show the last servers i joined.Heres a picture of how i think it coul look like: Somehow self explanatory. Show the name of last 3 to 5 Servers i joined. If possible it may be greatly enchancing multiplayerexpirience if it also show if the Server is actually online and on which version!
Why ?
Same story old long: Friday evening, some beers, some fun, a new game fresh from scratch starting at time played <10 minute.After a night long play with new friends like "supper buddy i dont know" or "super pro i would like to play again with" and especially "my future factoriowife she just doesnt know it yet" the clock hits 5:30 in the morning and i hit my bed. Dreaming of the new awesome factory iam going to finnish of together with my future factoriowife on that nice server that implemented a new feature i liked much.
10 hours later its time to finaly finish that prepared outpost but wait what server did i play at last night?
Was it Redmeat? No this server was to far ahead.
Or that danish server? Yes i joined that server but i left becasue starting area was surrounded by water.
Maybe it was Pro Elite Noobs? No it wasnt that either.
Hey thats it German Kamikatze. Damm no i instantly left that server as i saw that micro ore patches.
Joining all 15 Server which could fit because of uptime and none is the right one. Is my new server offline? Did they update? May my client updatet through steam while i was making coffe? Will i ever meet "my future factoriowife she just doesnt know it yet" again?
Re: Show last 5 Server played in Multiplayer.
Entertaining xD
But seriously having a list of recent or favourite servers would be cool, I wouldn't use it so much for the server list thing cause I rarely play there but I have a number of Direct connect servers and having the IPs and passwords already entered would be cool.... I'm thinking like Minecraft can do this in their MP server lists, your saved servers appear and they also self organise into most recently connected, I also think it's practically endless not limited to 5. Maybe a check box "Show My Servers first" thing rather than simply alpha numeric or age.

"Recent servers" list for multiplayer
It can be awkward finding a game one recently played if it's not one of the big soft-mod / scenario / clan-style servers. A side box with recent server names, and if possible, recorded address would be sufficient: record the last 5 or so connections, and then click one, and it tries to connect and show the information in the right-side panel (description, currently playing, etc).
Edit: thank you for the merge, sorry I didn't see the other thread first.

Re: Recent played servers
Yes please, I've needed this so many times. Factorio games are rarely finished on the same day. Anytime you join a random multiplayer server and play for a few hours, you're very likely to want to come back the following day. But by that time you've completely forgotten the server name, and you cannot filter the list by host/player names, so there's no way to find it again unless you do an elaborate manual search.
List of favourite non-public/direct connect servers
TL;DR
When 1 direct connect, non-public, non-LAN server isn't enough!What ?
A list of (favourite) servers you've connected directly to, preferrably with stored passwords. Custom server list.Why ?
So I've got a hosted server of my own that I've set up for MY friends. But if other friends/communities have their own servers, quite possible non-public and non-LAN servers, I'm left with 2 possibilities: Either query the IP/pass every time I'm swapping, OR keep a notepad/textfile of IPs and passwords, which is indeed possible, but gosh is it tedious.

Merged some similar enough threads together
Edit:
Hmpf. Seems I made a mistake and have overseen, that there are some parts of this are already implemented. I apologize and will fix this, but not now and as I’m not playing multiplayer since loooong I don’t know yet what of these is already implemented and what not. Can someone point me to the right update message, I couldn’t find it.
