ansible-gs-iss

This role installs a Insurgency Sandstorm server.

The server can be configured through variables of this role.
For security reasons, the game server will be running as the system user steam.
A script to [start|stop|restart|update] the server will be placed on the target machine.
If this role is executed without any further configuration, it will set up a server with all default parameters.
