Configuration option to disable DS update before starting the server
See original GitHub issueTorch Version: 1.3.1.99 SE Version: 1.193.103
Whenever Torch starts the SE dedicated server it forces an update in Initializer.RunSteamCmd
:
log.Info("Checking for DS updates.");
In the case of the system we built ( https://spacewar.se ) we run new dedicated servers based on player needs and recycle unused lobbies periodically. It causes a lot of DS updates, which tend to fail or take too long due to Steam being slow at processing requests from time to time. We are not throttled or limited in any way, it is just due to temporary problems on Steam’s side.
I suggest adding a configuration option to Torch.cfg to disable the DS update. It could be done by adding such an option and simply making the related code block conditional.
Updates would be done by periodically updating the DS image we clone before starting each server.
Default behavior would be the current one, e.g. updating each time before starting the DS.

That should be fixed in the next big update as well since we’ll be using a third party library to handle command line input.
