I got as far as downloading the tool from the steam client, launched it, it said it was running in the background, but now what? I don't need to know any commands or anything (well maybe being able to kick people) I just want to have my world a server so people can play when I am not.

I got this message when trying to launch my world, so the server thing is running in the back, but idk what this means or how to fix it. http://prntscr.com/m13u2w

 
I fixed the error message by changing the game port to 26903 and got it to launch, friend joined, but when I close the game he got kicked. I want people to be able to play with me connected, how?

 
Ok I changed the server port in XML for both 7 days and 7 days server tool to 26903 and launched the game and got the same error message as before but with different port codes. 26903 to 26905

 
Here are some vids Guppy did awhile ago. Not sure if you can look at these and get help with it.

The server and your local game need to be on different ports.

 
Without knowing much about your setup, here's what you could try... run your dedicated server like usual. Assuming you have all the ports forwarded correctly, your friend should be able to join. Then for you to join, use 127.0.0.1:26901 (or whatever you have the port set to). I haven't tested it, but you SHOULD be able to use the dedicated server for both you and your friend, but maybe it's possible that you would have to use a different computer for the server to have both of you play on it.
