Good day everyone,
I am currently trying to whitelist a certain amount of players inside my dedicated server. The command line that I use is:
WhitelistPlayer [SteamID64]
Doing this with the in-game console or RCON command line results in a Unknown title showing up in the admin panel whitelisted players list.
I have tried to:
- Turn off server, edit whitelist.txt file to be [SteamID64:FuncomID] , restart the server. This makes the list show 1 Unkown title.
- Do the same command but with SteamID and SteamID3 instead of SteamID64
- Do the same command but with SteamID64:FuncomID
When starting the server, I get this error: LogOnline:Warning: STEAM: Steam API disabled!
Does this mean that the server cannot get the SteamsID64s ?
I am not sure if this is the problem, but if it is, how to I fix it?
All players are currently able to join the server with no lag.
Why I need to use the whitelist:
The server is extremely popular which is great but means that the server is usually full. Certain people that helps with the well-fonctionning of the server needs to have priority log-in. I have read that the whitelist make a player able to log in and kick another player to have his place in the server.
The server specifications:

400 down and 50 up internet speed

30% CPU
64% RAM
50% Disk
The server does nothing else than host this
Server restarts and does a backup at 4 am everyday
40 players max 30 tick rate
The server ports:
