Pirateer5Sorry for bump, but -hushsteam means you can't use unlocks in local tf2 servers, would streamers still be safe by just being invisible on Steam or do you need both? Would you need to remove -hushsteam when playing on local tf2 servers, then add it back when you're playing normally? Cheers
bit of speculation but i remember people pretty much being able to index the tf2 master server list (the data of the server browser) to find streamers in ~2018, so if your local server were to show up in there and was reachable, you'd show up just like you would when you inspect a server, even if you were offline
it's possible that sv_lan 1 is enough to prevent that: "( no heartbeat, no authentication, no non-class C addresses )", heartbeat should be what makes you show up in the master server list, authentication should be something you opt in when you actually host servers, and non-class C addresses is networking stuff that doesn't matter for this
