Feature request : server info in-game + in the logs
Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

Feature request :
I would like information about the current server (name + ip/port) on which a player is playing to be accessible to him:

  • in game (for example on the screen via the general menu interface when you press the "Escape" key)
  • in the client logs at least for connection/disconnection

Game Version number: Any next update, (the sooner the better)
Modded?: No

Issue Description: (or rather the reasons which motivate the addition of this functionality)

  • many people simply don't report bugs because they have no idea which server the bug occurred on.
  • many people do not know/remember on which server their issue happened and report bugs without this crucial information. This would allow BI to have direct access to the correct server which had a problem to monitor it or search for information in its logs.
  • adding the information to the logs would enable people who encounter bugs to find this information in their client logs after the fact, so that they can make a "correct" report when this information is needed for further investigations.

This is one of those small QoL things that would help the player base in the day to day. Not only would having this info help the player but it helps when inviting or joining a friend.
if i want to join a friend i can right click join, but if the server is full it will kick me out before i know what server. If my bud doesn't remember if he's in NY or LA or which WCS server than we are stuck trying to figure that out or play trial and error. Having the info solves that.

it would also help the QA team, since @Geez would not have to keep asking, "which server did this occur on?"
