    If someone has an account on Valve Developer Community could they add Empires to this list please:

    https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Dedicated_Servers_List

    I know we don't need anymore dedicated servers, but lets face it. It's free advertising, and it increases the chances of a preexisting community discovering and trying the game.

    I don't think we have a dedicated server depot (that is, something you can just download from Steam).

    Yeah, I'm pretty certain that the page is for dedicated-server specific installs and not for stuff that runs through SRCDS.

    This would require putting together a steam pipe script to build an empires dedicated server package (like what's done for bundling the 2013 sdk base multiplayer with empires now) and asking valve to give an app id for empires dedicated server.

    Ah ok, my bad.

    I'm guessing theres no benefit, and only hassle to adding a dedicated server package?

    Well it certainly makes it easier to set up an Empires dedicated server, so that's a benefit :) But it can be put on the backburner for the moment.
