I'm new to this. I rented a server here last night. That was actually my 2nd server rental ever, anywhere. The first was the day before with a different company. The experience here was so much different. The way Survival Servers has everything set up is really good. Everything was laid out, great tool tips. I did not have to scour the web to figure out what I needed to do. You gave me that info up front. This seems like a no-brainer but with my first server rental, that was not my experience. There was no documentation. There was nothing. The wiki was useless and I was boggled that they even called it a wiki. I had one hiccup. After speeding through the easy setup, everything was in order but my server refused to start. I came to the forum, did a quick search and found someone mentioning that if this happens, you should click that "reinstall server" option. That worked. Suggestion: Please add some info about doing that if your server won't start. It would be great to not have to search for that info. Thanks!

This would allow us to give users the link to the collection. With that they could pre install mods instead of hoping their connection doesn't time out in game. This would also allow us to use an existing user friendly interface (the steam workshop) to add/remove mods. Also, I know of one specific problem this would solve. We ran into this problem a few days ago. It took hours for us newbie server admins to figure this out. One of the mods we had added was deleted by the author. This gave everyone trying to join a "Failed to install mod map" error. We had to go through our mods ID by ID to figure out which one it was. If it was a workshop collection, it would automatically display the mod as removed from workshop. Please and thank you for your consideration.
