Hi. Can you encourage the devs to publish their UpToDateCheck URL so
that server ops can do automatic updates?
I assume this is just something they can set in Steamworks, but I don't
know that.
For example, TF2's:

Any server-operators out there looking for another Source-based game

"Fistful of Frags" could use your help. FoF launched (for FREE) on
Steam yesterday, and the response has been overwhelming.
The down-side to that, is frankly there just are not enough dedicated
servers to keep-up with the demand. There are over 200 player-slots
of dedicated servers - but that apparently just is not enough!
FoF is basically a "reboot" of the older FoF "sourcemod" - moved over
to Steam. The Steam version of FoF is kind-of stripped-down right now
to just death-match and team-based death-match.
Even so, it is very fun to play (especially four-team DM).
However, being a free game (put-together by unpaid volunteers), the
FoF dev team simply can not afford to bring-up enough servers to keep
up with demand. I have personally helped-out by hosting 8 servers
instances myself (up from my planned 3).
Obviously, it runs on SRCDS and uses SteamCMD/SteamPipe for
installation/content delivery. So, it essentially installs just like
any SRCDS game, and is compatible with SourceMod, etc.
Steam store page (where to get client to install):
http://store.steampowered.com/app/265630
Steam community "hub" for FoF (discussion groups, etc.):
http://steamcommunity.com/app/265630
Steam "official" group page (update history, etc.):
http://steamcommunity.com/games/fof
Any help appreciated!
