I see it is specifying a core dumped, but unsure how or where I can view this.

I was able to get the issue fixed and got the server back up and running. What I believe happened was the update was corrupted on my pod when installed. I was unable to get this to re-update because it was already on the latest version. I ended up editing the steam-entrypoint.sh script to contain the --validate flag on the update command. This made it possible to re-download the update and install it correctly to fix the pod.

This might be a good idea to try and add a tag to allow something like this in the future.

Good idea with --validate .. I will reopen this issue and integrate a flag in the entrypoint-script.
