To remove a server from the startup list, simply run C:\Servers\Edit Batch Launchers.py and uncheck the servers you don't want auto-launching with windows.
This will add a "REM" line in front of that game's launcher in the launch servers batch files so it skips those lines.

To add a new server to the list:

The game server files should be saved in the C:\Games directory for the most part, then you make the normal desktop shortcuts and readme and config file shortcuts in a folder under C:\Servers\ so it can be found easy, that folder has a shortcut in the quick launch bar and desktop. You can right click on this new folder and under properties, cutomize give it a nice icon to match the game's.


Then you copy a batch file within C:\Games\Batch_Files such as "launch_scorched.bat" and re-name it "launch_gamename.bat" and edit it, change the .exe it looks for so it doesn't launch the service twice to the .exe your game server is called in task manager when running, changing it to launch the newly created shortcut you added to the c:\servers directory, changing it's echo'd callouts from saying "Launching scorched server" and "Skipping launching sorched server" to whatever your game's name is.


Then finally add a call line to C:\Servers\Launch_all_servers.bat


Now you can either launch the server from the servers folder you created under c:\Servers, or let it auto-launch from the batch file!
