add filtered servers to network manager? #115

hello Chad

it's possible i'm an idiot, but i looked through the guide, all the issues, and played with the program for a while, but i wasn't able to figure this out; it appears that only a single server from each country is added to the network manager when doing a sync - i'm wondering if it's possible to add more

for example, what if i want to add the top 5 servers for the specified locations in terms of ping/load to net manager - is this possible?

Hi and again apologies for not getting back to you in a timely manner.

You are correct that this is currently not possible. May I ask what the use-case is for needing multiple per country? I think I considered it before, but didn't see many benefits when weighed against the extra complexity it would add to the settings.

It's definitely a possibility though!

well, let's say you want to connect to local nodes to reduce network delay or increase the reliability of the connection, or you want to connect to a specific country because you like their privacy laws - if your connection to that server drops, it might be nice to be able to quickly choose another from the same general location
