You have to update it.
How do you make a dedicated server?

(big_toilet here, from the subreddit(s) and IRC)
This is what I believe to be true:

Open opencmd.bat and type Navigate to a section where it says "For dedicated servers". It will tell you to type
Below in the options it will tell you what the hell port, mod, and args are. My questions are thus:

Can I have a real-life example of this laid out? Like with something written instead of port, mod, args, etc. Can you have more than one mod listed at a time? What arguments would I need to pass and why?

I also have to confess I have no dedicated server. Can I still use this option running off my computer for decent results? If not is there somewhere cheap I can pay for someone else to host it?

yes, you can absolutely run a dedicated server on your computer. just don't put a billion slots on it.
port- this is the network communication port. just put in a random number other than something like 80 (SSH) (EG, unused port. look up a list if you don't know what are some common ones)
mod- these are just mods that will be on the server. look through the stuff and find what appeases you. "args" is short for arguments. i have yet to do this myself, so go ahead and do what GM made half of the page about.
read the manual.

Ok, thanks for your help. Pretty soon I hope to write some guides to stick on the subreddit to help out other new folks :)

Thanks...
