[Server] Monitor - Additions And Changes

[Greg-UK4 31]

Hi Guys,

I've been using Monitor for a while, since Silentspy set it up for me.

I would like to suggest the following:

1: Allow multiple applications to be started and monitored.

Within the Programs node:

hive
hive.exe


hive
hiveAuth.exe

I would like the ability to define another application - such as BEC* - so it could also be restarted on server reboot.

I'd also like the ability to individually control the affinity of these applications.

2: Beta server support

Within the tag, I would like to be able to utilise the beta server EXE, since the latest update resolves a lot of the memory allocation issues and crashes, it would be more prudent to use this going forward (for those that want to).

3: Don't overwrite my ban list!

I understand that you do not want us to ban people without some serious infraction, but I use temporary (30m, 60m, 1day) bans to keep the server clean and enjoyable for everyone, from VON spammers, racist assholes and over the top douchery**.

Upon a server restart, it overwrites the bans.txt and bitshifts one from your servers - nullifying the ban, and instantly the nobs are back on the server shouting over VON at everyone. Despite telling people to mute them there is always an overwhelming push for me to kick/ban them - people start leaving the server and it generally ruins it for everybody.

I'd never ban anyone permanently, I rely on DayzDev to make that call.

** Douchery defined as: Abusive behavior, racism, general twattishness***

*** twattishness defined as: All the above, and refusal to heed warnings

I strongly agree with point 3.

I only temp ban abusive people due to the fact that they push their boundaries too far. When people mic spam, I give numerous warnings via chat and even RCON. If they're ignored, I'll remove them from my server for a while. (Never took note of bans being overwritten though).

2. I still need to set that up ^^. I'll do that later if I remember.

1. I also use BEC* as Greg recommended it to me, so I support his request
