Server Restart Help

Recommended Posts

What am i doing wrong? The restart messages are popping up, but the server ain't restarting at that time it will restart sometime later, i am 100% positive i have the restart messages set to broadcast at the right time, i am using the ingame time, is there another clock i should be looking at to set these because it is 100% right if i am using the server time.

You are missing the command to restart the server. You need to add this command to restart the server.


-<job id="7">
<time>17:00</time>
<!-- run at 5'o Clock in the morning -->
<day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>
<loop>0</loop>
<cmd>#shutdown</cmd>
<cmdtype>0</cmdtype>
</job>

adjust the time and the job id so it fits you.

You can read about it here

Instead of having #shutdown shouldn't i put #restart there because i want it to restart and not shutdown? And does that mean it will restart exactly at that time?

You need to use the #shutdown command. I think the #restart command only restarts the mission. Are you using TCadmin or FireDaemon to control the server? This will see that the server is no longer running and start it back up.

I am using TCadmin, so i use #shutdown right?

Yes, the TCA watchdog process will start it again.
