hey,
i removed the steam:// prefix from the address field because it's not correct/working for non steam games.

i have plans to allow customization of the embed fields via configuration, but for now, if you want this the quickest way would be to edit the discord-bot source and put it back in.

the embed is created here: 8197f27491/src/discord-bot.ts (L181)
and the line you want would look something like this:

fields.push({ name: 'Address', value: String('steam://connect/' + gs.info.connect)});

if you need this to run in ptero, for now i suggest you create a fork, make changes there, and then edit the ptero egg install script line that starts with git clone https: to point to your own fork instead of mine (a-sync/game-server-watcher). then install a new server with the new egg.
