Just another quick (bug?) report, if you click 'Create Lobby' from the 'Play
on Steam Group Server' screen, it goes to a find lobby screen instead of one
with the 'create lobby' button.

Subject: [hlds] Steam community group features

Ok, we're getting ready to ship the first round of the group features we've
been working on this week.

There is a new cvar called sv_steamgroup, which takes the Steam group number
(which is now visible on the group's administrative page). The server will
still be part of matchmaking, but users that are in that group will be able
to browse directly to it from the main menu. Also, if this value is set,
there will be a button near the message of the day that allows users to go
directly to that group's page. This allows them to join that group if they
like, and then be able to browse back to it in the future.

There is another convar in there called sv_steamgroup_exclusive, which isn't
completely implemented yet. The goal if it will be to make a server only
joinable by users within that group, but there are some edge cases where
matchmaking could still potentially put users on there.  People are welcome
to play around with it for now, and we should have it fully implemented in
the next few days or so.

Hopefully this addresses some of the concerns server admins have brought up.

Erik
