Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Yes, this is related to a problem I sometimes have. Rainway for me crashes every once in a while.

Describe the solution you'd like When on the screen of "Rainway desktop not found", add a feature (that first has to be enabled on the PC's Rainway desktop settings) to attempt to start Rainway

Describe alternatives you've considered The only "alternative" I can think of is just waiting until I get home and start Rainway up when I get home.

Additional context Basically, when Rainway Desktop is not running and the "Rainway Desktop not found" screen is up, there should be a button that attempts to start Rainway Desktop on the last connected to computer on the account.

So basically you want the client to be able to identify offline servers, wake them up and launch Rainway as well?

Something along those lines

Now that I think more about this it would be really hard to implement it. Because how exactly would you contact the computer when said computer isn't running Rainway. The only thing I can think of is having some sort of background process almost always running on the computer that listens for requests.
