Didn't know that, that's interesting

Steam allegedly supports up to 4 data transfer channels (which means that one can pretend to be UDP and another can pretend to be TCP), but this complicates the matters - right now the tool's logic is just "wait for a player to pop up in the lobby, talk to them until they leave or the socket closes", but with two sockets these need to be watched independently on two threads with some extra work to not upset Steam.

In the meantime I can suggest ZeroTier - haven't used my own tool in more than a year as that works pretty consistently.
