AutoConnect

AutoConnect is a lightweight client-side mod that joins your saved multiplayer server when you open the Multiplayer screen.

It is useful if you usually play on the same server and want to skip opening the server list, selecting the server, and pressing Join every time. The server address can be entered manually, or updated automatically when you join a server from the normal multiplayer list.

AutoConnect only changes the client-side connection flow. It does not bypass authentication, whitelists, bans, player limits, server rules, or any other server-side restriction.
