How to Quickly Find and Join your CS:GO Server
Find the IP Address of your Nodecraft CS:GO Server
On the control panel for your Nodecraft CS:GO server, click on the "Overview" tab.
In the "Server Information" section on the overview page will be the IP address of your server. In the screenshot below, that section has been covered up with a red box for security reasons.
Copy and paste that IP address, you will need that information later on. You can also use your DNS Hostname, and this may be preferable if your server IP ever changes.
Add your private server to Steam Server "Favorites"
Launch Steam, and at the top edge of the Steam launcher, click on the word "view". In the drop down menu that appears, click on "servers".
This window will appear, and click on the "add a server" button near the bottom right corner.
That will cause a smaller window to appear, and you enter your Nodecraft server IP address into the box in the middle, and save.
If this step has been completed successfully, your Nodecraft server will show in the Steam "Favorites" window.
