Enhance Ark instance config

There are two major enhancements that would be nice to have the app support for Ark instances:

  • clustering of multiple ark instances (usually used in context of different maps that you can export yourself to at beacon towers) .. This is not clustering servers, it's a specific way maps and instances are installed as a 'cluster' (same server is fine) where you can transfer between maps at will.

  • Map selection drop-down . . The map names in Ark are very specific, and some are seemingly illogical.. so it would be a lot easier to be able to select config options like Map type (e.g. 'TheCenter', 'TheIsland', 'Ragnarok' and 'ScorchedEarthP' [note the "P" in the Scorched Earth map name]) from a drop-down.

I second this suggestion, anyone know of any work around to cluster multiple ark instances?

FWIW, the clustering bit is not as large or complex as it probably sounds. The gist of their clustering is having multiple instances running that can reach a single shared witness folder and starting the ark with a cluster flag in the command line options list.
