    I just tried running a KAG server while disconnected from the Internet. It seemed to work - I was able to connect on the loopback address. However, to connect I had to launch the game, click "Play Offline", click the back arrow, click "Multiplayer", then click "Connect to..." and type in 127.0.0.1:50301. All the while the server complained about not being able to connect to the master server.

    Is the KAG server capable of being configured to run in a LAN-only environment, or is this the only way to do it?

    Well there's global sv_require_auth = 1; // If set to 1 server checks client authentication via master server.
    Dunno though.

    The server still tried to connect to the master server, regardless of that setting.
    I don't think the server was designed with LAN-only operation in mind.

    It certainly does output nagging debug regarding failure to connect to master server. That said, it appears to work just fine without internet connection.
