GC = Game Coordinator
- ✓ Server name not empty (or default to "playername's server"?)
- ✓ 9114 Add GAME_INFO to TCP and use it for lobby
- ✓ 9469 Sync NetworkGameInfo from server with all clients, so clients locally know the server they are on (and sync servername changes when they happen); possibly only sync information client doesn't already know via a Command packet.
- ✓ 9469 Show server name in GUI
- ✓ 9112 Change Connect() to always be non-blocking and with a low (configurable) timeout
- ✓ 9127 Allow Connect() to bind locally
- Refactor NetworkGameList to use C++ linked-list (and don't call an entry on a list
List) - ✓ 9114 Refactor NetworkGameInfo to have all functions in the same place (like
SendGRFIdentifieretc) - ✓ 9114 Add new NetworkGameInfo version to work better with GC (optional NewGRF, remove of unused fields, invite-code)

- ✓ 9017 Add STUN capability

- ✓ 9017 Add retrieving server-list via GC
- ✓ Add ability to GC to scan a new server what type of connection he has (direct, STUN, TURN, ..)
- ✓ 9017 On client-join-request, figure out best way to connect client and server
- ✓ Allow for "sticky" invite-codes
- ✓ 9017 Add "visibility" setting "friends-only", which does connect to GC but doesn't make the server public
- On join, ask user to download missing NewGRFs and automate this otherwise
- ✓ 9114 Extend the NewGRF blob in server info with the name of the GRF, so we can do away with the complex code to get the name if we don't know the NewGRF
- ✓ 9017 Remove UDP protocol from OpenTTD (only keep the UDP broadcast for local LAN network game discovery)
- If a server has a password, ask that before showing company info (or as alternative:)
