Yes, If i block steam traffic port as well, then players wont be able to connect.
Now what we have done is 1) Used -nomaster so that server info does not come 2) Server is password protected so only few people know the password 3) When all the player comes in the server they go offline from steam so that noone gets the info where they are playing 4)We have blocked all the ips and only those ips are allowed which are supposed to play. I know its hilarious but in my last 3 years of working with servers this is most private server i have ever build :) And the end of the day everyone is happy as they can play :) and that what matters On Thu, Dec 6, 2012 at 7:46 PM, Jeremy Agostino <[email protected]>wrote: > What if you blocked the Steam traffic port for the server?
