> Hello am currently trying to setup Steam with my project. I got the overlay working, that was the easy part, thank you . But am very unsure where to go from , i tried finding a local server in Steam but had no luck of yet. I have not done anything...

How do i get Steam / Online Subsystem to initelize when a dedicated server is started (no Steam Client running)?  
And what is AutoLogin refering to?

Thank you for any help.

You will need to use your own networking system. UE4’s native dedicated server doesn’t support many of these features and is essentially broken
