Setting up automated server messages before restart

[andb52 12]

Hello. I want to have my server automatically restart every X number of hours, but I also want to send a 5 minute warning before doing so. Can any of you tell me how I should can about doing this so that the 5 minute warning is automatically given? My host is Vilayer, if that matters at all.

Thanks!

I am also interested in this

I asked Lee about this yesterday (I am also renting a server from Vilayer). He said you can make a restart schedule through their ACP , which I did, but there is no way at the moment to generate automated messages.

I know it can be done if you run a dedicated server, as I have seeen various ones do / have it. It just seems to be impossible to set it up yourself when you rent a slot server / gameserver.

So, just to make sure I'm clear, Lee said that there's currently no way to set up automated warning messages?

Check out this:

You can schedule automated ingame-messages and other commands with Battleye Extended Controls

I personally use BEC it's not difficult at all, easy XML scripts. Of course it involves having your own dedicated server.

Lee said, because I specifically asked about it, that at the moment you can not setup automated message's whatsoever. So this should also cover the restart warnings.

Maybe it is something they will implement later on? I don't know.

For now I just have the scheduled restart times as one of the MOTD lines. Of course, you can only see those once when one logs into the server.

On a side note; I have been having some stupid stuff as a result of the restarts. Especially inventory being wiped, tent inventory that is. Kind of annoying, not sure if I should stop these auto-restarts as it seems to do me no good at all....damn tents!!! :)

Great, I'll look into that. Thank you.

1* Check that the server is running.
2* Check that the port is correct.
3* Check that the firewall is not blocking the program.

Try to set not 127.0.0.1, but your server's public IP
