    Big Thanks to Tim, Jeremy et al at ISI for the update.

    Bryan,
    Gamer-Hosting did an excellent job of describing how this ONECLICK feature can be used. I'll just throw out another scenario of how our league has been using it for the past several years:
    We have only one server, but have traditionally run two separate race series. When we ran RF1 it was the GP79 mod every two weeks, and some other form of either classic F1 mod, or a more modern aero mod, on the alternate weekend.

    On the server we also created three distinct profiles for each series; Practice, CLUB and RACEDAY
    The Practice profile when launched would typically be lower damage rate, no password, etc etc. It also was perhaps designed to allow for slight mismatches as over the years we modded the GP79 mod in many different ways [handicapping, bug fixing, etc].
    CLUB was a bit stricter but still open to the public. These are designed to auto launch as Gamer described on Thursdays and Saturdays as our Club events - group practice and an opportunity to invite potential new members.
    Finally on Sunday the RaceDay profile fires up, server passworded, damage, damage increased, etc.

    The real beauty of this is that once the full race was over, you could go in and configure the next event quickly and forget about it for a full two weeks. No need to worry if a race admin was late, sick, had connect problems, etc. Everything launches when and how you want automatically.

    So far, so good - looks like "oneclick" is once again working in build 590. Many thanks to the ISI crew for the quick fix! ;)
