Configurable connection timeout

Open thomas-mc-work opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Describe the feature you'd like

I've configured the server instance to startup once a request comes in. After a defined time the server will be shutdown again. It's implmented via Sablier. Now the server needs some time to startup. The client seems only for a few seconds and then asks to enter the server details because it thinks the server is dead (which is true until it's alive again). I'd like to have a setting which defines the connection timeout for my server to an individual value. That would help the client to wait longer than usual before it cancels the connection attempt.

#341 is marked a duplicate of #291 which is about having multiple server connections configured plus a way to select them. This issue is about adding the ability to define a custom connection timeout for the server connection and thus in the same field but different at the core.

Hi there. Yea you are right. However #291 also mentions the connection timeout. Therefore I'd argue it is about "general improvements" to the server selection.

However you are correct, your feature request goes into a different direction and does not directly relate to server selection. Thanks for the quick notice and Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Kind regards.
