Server notes
Dedicated appid 4020; UDP 27015 carries game/query traffic, TCP 27015 is optional restricted RCON access. UDP 27005 is a client port; 27020 is for enabled SourceTV. Workshop collections install server addons; client content needs separate item registration. Current official examples need no -authkey. Server mount.cfg does not supply missing client assets. ULX requires ULib and is an addon. September 2026 adds Windows 64-bit builds; binary modules must match the architecture.
