    I have an IP masking service which updates to my changing IP.

    Is there a way for a server to use this?

    By "Ip masking" you mean a dns service. Like myserver.mydomain.net instead of an IP ... or is it some sort of VPN ?

    The only problem would be disabling the possibility for players to add the server in their favorites i think since the IP changes and favorites are probably saved by their unique IP ...

    I don't think so. I presume you want the game (clients etc) to only see the mask.

    If what you mean is that you have a dynamic ip (changing) and you use a noip server there are no problems, we have been using it for years.
