Dedicated Server

[Turk]

I don't have the Dedicated Server in Steam Tools. Anyway to fix this or download it elsewhere? I've restarted Steam three times. No change. Steam tools are selected to show.

I just want to add that trying to run a dedicated server on the same PC as steam that is playing the game can be problematic as it can cause issues with port routing and failure for outside people to connect to servers, and some games and dedicated servers detect themself as the same and don't allow you to run 2 games at the same time hence it force closes one to open the other. Also a true dedicated server is just that, a dedicated server that doesn't have Steam installed and doesn't have a steam account required. I mean why do you think dedicated servers can be downloaded anon and not require any form of login? The game devs over time have made dedicated servers avail from Steam, but as a Server admin of over 40 servers across 7 different games I can tell you that it's not the best way to do this. can it be done, sure.. but you are prone to other issues.

Do as you wish, this is not a troll message, just giving my feedback as an expert in the field and saying that that you still need to mess with command lines with steam downloaded dedicated servers 99% of the time to configure them and still need to go out and open ports, etc. the only real difference here is how it downloads. Other then that, it's all the same really.

Your comment contains several issues surrounding networking and dedicated servers. Firstly, "port routing" is not a thing, learn the TCP/UDP stack please. Running a dedicated server alongside a game on the same PC can lead to resource contention, but this isn't solely due to Steam. Issues with outside connections would only be a thing if you can't figure out how to configure a firewall. Additionally, while some games or servers may prevent running multiple instances simultaneously, this isn't a universal problem. Lastly, defining a true dedicated server as one without Steam installed or requiring a Steam account is incorrect; dedicated servers can run with Steam installed.

You are clearly not an "expert".
