Steam seems to have had some sort of maintenance / outage to day again, twice. This let our TF2 servers unconnected to some servers which resulted for unlockable weapons not working. Since the system does not seem to work as intended (=servers do noyt reconnect back without rebooting them), can we get a manual command which would allow us to reconnect them on-the-fly. It's really annoying to reboot servers with full of people playing the game.
