Steam Advanced Sessions - Setting The Server Name?

Does anyone know how to set the server name in the Steam Advanced Sessions plugin’s Create Advanced Session node? I keep getting a long number in the steam server browser. :disappointed_relieved:

Have you solved it?

Yes, I did.

You place a Make Literal Session Property String node.

Key = ServerName
Value = Your server name

You can also place another Make Literal Session Property String node.

Key = MAPNAME (Case Sensitive)
Value = Your map name

This will get your map name to show up in the Steam server browser.

Then connect the nodes to a Make Array node and plug them into the Extra Settings pin of the Create Advanced Session node.

Perhaps ill find it literally on my google search here in a moment, but what are the other keys that you can pass as extra settings?

These are the variable types that the session supports, just make an array out of them and plug them into the “extra sessions” of the Create Advanced Session node like I did. :wink:

I was figuring that i could do my own custom ones and read them, but is there like a specific list that steam for example might use to pull them into its server browser… i didnt see anything in the steam documentation but i could be looking in the wrong place there is so much of it @VelikyPanda

As far as I’m aware, the properties that the Steam server list uses are these:

ServerName
MAPNAME

(they are case-sensitive)

As far as I know, the ServerName doesn’t actually work and you have to add

-SteamServerName="Your server name here"

to the shortcut that you use to start the server.

There should also be a setting for passwords but I haven’t figured that out yet. As you said, there is no information out there.
