Restart server not shutdown

[daffyyyy]

Hi,
Don't use stop command but combination

execute server command -> sv_cheats 1
and crash server -> auto restart
execute server command -> crash

I'm all for a solution that restarts rather than shutdown. So if thats possible somehow, that would be great.

Btw, how does your -autoupdate script look like? Mine does not update when I start the server like it used to do in CSGO. Mine looks like this:

@ShutdownOnFailedCommand 1
@NoPromptForPassword 1
login anonymous
force_install_dir /home/server1
app_update 730
quit

I don't know anything about the possibilities to restart, but the name of this tool might be misleading. A more accurate name would be cs2-shutdown-on-update.

@BrutalCSEjziponken, I think you need force_install_dir before login. I have this in a script: steamcmd +force_install_dir "${cs2_path}" +login anonymous +app_update 730 +quit.

So your server is updating with this script? Without a 3rd party tool that handles updates? Just a command line and the script? Where exactly do you add: "steamcmd +force_install_dir "${cs2_path}" +login anonymous +app_update 730 +quit."

Edit: I think i figured it out.. But.. It still wont actually run when I start a server. I dont really need manual work.. :D

My full shell script would be:

#!/bin/sh
set -eux

cs2_path=/home/cs2server/data

while true; do
	steamcmd +force_install_dir "${cs2_path}" +login anonymous +app_update 730 +quit

	TARGET_DIR="${cs2_path}/game/csgo" ~/acmrs.sh

	(cd "${cs2_path}/game/bin/linuxsteamrt64/" && { ./cs2 -dedicated -usercon -console +exec server.cfg +map de_dust2 || true ; } )
done

Running this by just doing ./run.sh should just keep everything going. I've edited the acmrs.sh (a script that prevents messing up gameinfo.gi) so I can pass the directory through a variable.

Still pretty new of course, but so far I don't have anything to complain about.

Does the plugin really just shut down the server?

Yes, if I'm interpreting the source code right: it executes quit if an update is available.
