Steam Deck struggles to host a modded server
I've tried getting calamity working to host for my friends but everything I try stays on "starting server..." for like minutes and doesn't make ANY progress. Can anyone tell me the issue?

A broken mod is likely causing your issue. This short guide will teach you how to read the log file. Follow the steps and disable the broken mods. https://github.com/tModLoader/tModLoader/wiki/Basic-tModLoader-Usage-FAQ#reading-clientlog

I disabled some broken mods but it's still not working
Does it work with 0 mods? I think I tested hosting a server last time I was testing on the steam deck

Let me try
Doesn't work
Well, I'll try to test. You are doing host and play right?
Working for me, is there anything you can think of that you might have done out of the norm?
You can send the log files if you switch to desktop mode and open up the install folder

What have i done wrong...
Your logs all look normal up until the server one just stops while loading calamity. I'm not really sure why that's happening, usually if there were an error it would show up in the logs. Have you tried launching the server with 0 mods as a test since disabling proton? Would be useful to see what the server.log looks like in that situation
