Start and connect
Section titled “Start and connect”- Press Start and wait until the status says Online.

Files the panel keeps up to date
Section titled “Files the panel keeps up to date”Each time your server starts, the panel writes your server’s port and address into: Astro/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/AstroServerSettings.ini, Astro/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/Engine.ini. If a value you set in those files keeps changing back, that is why. Change it with the settings above, or open a ticket.
