Game Caching System - Odt

This document contains the configuration for an Nginx server that will cache Steam downloads locally. It defines four different log formats to differentiate local, remote, default, and other requests. It configures Nginx to listen on port 80, sets the document root and error pages, enables caching, and uses a reverse proxy to pass requests to the origin server with headers to indicate the cache status and timing. Requests for depot downloads are logged locally, while other requests are logged as remote or other.

## As a bonus, this also allows you to configure a single route to
