Feature Request: Change port number

Xerxes What is the purpose of the server key? Is it to have your server displayed in the master server list?
trymeout yes

Xerxes So if I port forwarded port 22222 and change net_port in the config to 22222, it will display in the F10 network menu as port 0, but port forwarding should work and I can host a private match?

By changing the net_port value in the config to a port nunber that is forwarded does work. When I press F10 it still shows UPnP being disabled and the port nunber being 0.
I would like to suggest a feature request to show the port number (in my case it will show port as 22222 in the F10 Network menu) if the port is open when UPnP is disabled for clarity. Otherwise like myself, one will be confused and have issues troubleshooting their port forwarding setup.
I would also like to suggest a config setting to disable upnp such as disable_upnp which will disable UPnP form being used at all. And in the F10 Menu it will display UPnP as "Fully Disabled" when set to 1. This will enhanced the security since UPnP is not the most secure way to port forward.
