The '''Source Dedicated Server''' or '''SRCDS''' is a tool that runs the server component of a [[Source (game engine)|Source]] game without the client component. In other words, it simulates the game without drawing it. SRCDS is chiefly used by server providers who want to serve up as many games from the same computer as they can.
This page, however, is aimed at mod developers who want to run SRCDS on their home computer. Doing this is a must if you are creating a multiplayer mod as the behaviour of dedicated servers differs from that of listenservers (those started from the main menu) in some areas. Crashes that only happen on a dedicated server are entirely possible!
