The correct way would be for valve to enable the script to handle allready
set variables.

This way you can run it as:
# STEAM="/path/to/steam"; ./srcds_run ....

Or write a wrapper script that sets all your variables you want before
running srcds_run.

Or set it in the users .bash_profile.

Another idea would be if they allow configuration files srcds_run.


One way, that allready works today, is to set the path to the steam binary
for your user. The script is written to try finding the steam binary.

# export PATH=$PATH:/games/steamdir

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/games/steamdir' >> .bash_profile
