Summary
Barotrauma servers are, by default, listed among all the other dedicated servers for the game. This public server list is a great way to meet new people and attract new and unknown players. Some users, however, may only want to play with a tight-knit group of people or friends. Fortunately, the server can be removed from the public list. Making a server private makes it so players can only join via direct connect, requiring a Server Password if one is set.
