Description

Since we got the source code for the client-side launcher (launcher_main), would we be able to get the source code for the dedicated server launcher? (dedicated_main/srcds)

Would be extremely useful for people who initialize error capturing (sentry) in the launcher, and who want to also do it for the dedicated server.

Research direction

Review the existing client-side launcher source at launcher_main and compare it with the requested dedicated server launcher entry points, dedicated_main and srcds. Done means the dedicated server launcher source is made available with the requested error-capturing integration point; the issue does not name tests or a specific implementation file.
