    I've just download the R3R dedicated server program from Steam and set it up on a server, which is a spare PC.
    The problem is when I log onto my gaming rig to play, Steam logs me out of the other (server) instance of Steam; effectively I cannot play on my own server because Steam is detecting R3R being launched on the other PC.

    If I load the server app and then the game app, Steam will close the server app, and vice-versa.

    You can start the executable of the server without Steam running.
