How TCAdmin's Game Switcher Works
The game switcher works by setting one game server as a "parent" service and the other associated game servers "child" services. The administrator must enable game switching on one game server. This will automatically make it a parent service. When the administrator clicks on Admin Home > Game Switching, he can set the child services for that service and also configure how many of them can be running at the same time. In this page each parent service will appear as "Group #" (for example Group 1, Group 2, etc).
When the user logs in, he will only see the game switching icon if he has game switching enabled on one of his servers. On that page he will choose which game server(s) he wants to run.
This video explains how to enable game switching for 2 game servers that already exist and how the user switches between them:
