User story

Use "updateonstart" option to update and start the server

Game

7daystodie

Linux distro

Ubuntu 22.04

Further information

If I try to start my 7dtd server using ./gameserver st, the server always checks for updates. After a few seconds I get the information that the app is already up to date and nothing else happens.

Same Issue is happening on HL2DM Server aswell. So it looks like Steam Games are a issue. CS2 for example doesn't have this issue

Update: Seems like Steam is removing the "Anonymous" Tag from a bunch of games. Means that you can't update the gameserver (via SteamCMD) without an account which in turn throws everything in a loop because of that
