Description

`psnet_init` is always called at startup which opens a UDP socket. Apart from consuming resources this also causes a firewall dialog to appear on Windows even when only playing in single-player.

Could the `psnet_init` call be delayed until it is actually needed e.g. when starting a multi-player session?
