The description of the server does not transfer lines automatically

Thanks for the report. The text box won't automatically add newlines - you have to manually add them if you want multiple lines.

Or are you talking about something else?

Why not? For example,map exchange string it does

That's text-wrapping not adding newlines.

The description field will take that text and print it exactly in the description field when looking at public games. If it line-wrapped it would give a false representation as to what it will actually render when someone looks at the game. Therefor you have to explicitly put a newline in saying "this is now a new line, render it as such in the browse-games GUI".

Okay, I understand

So, I saw another problem. If the string is too long, the selection does not work correctly
