Description Conrad Kostecki gentoo-dev

Note: This is NOT the Steam desktop client!

SteamCMD is the successor of HLDSUpdateTool, the old dedicated server tool by Valve. I know, years ago, there was an old eBuild for the HLDSUpdateTool.

This new eBuild, is my attempt to create a nice and clean installation for SteamCMD, so you install multiple dedicated servers at once. I am running this now for a couple of years.

The idea is, that this eBuild creates an user/group steamcmd and installs the package into /opt/steamcmd

This package provides an init script and a conf file, which should not be modified by the user but instead they make a symlink of that init script and a copy of that conf file. This that, you can do this for every server, you want to setup.

I've a pretty long instruction inside the eBuild.
