Jah Warrior Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Hello again, I am just getting to grips with using rcon and have managed to findout how to shutdown server remotely, however is there a way that i can re-activate it in a similar way to the killserver command? Is it possible? If so please do tell:D Peace to you ALL Jah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted June 22, 2002 Share Posted June 22, 2002 Are you trying to shutdown and restart the server directly--say, after installing a new map? Or are you trying to shut down the server for a period of time and then restart it later? If the former, then you could set up an auto-restart script and then killing the server using "quit" would cause it to be restarted immediately. If the later, I don't know of any way you could do that via rcon, since if the server isn't running...you can't connect to it via rcon. Some other options exist depending on what OS you're using to run the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jah Warrior Posted June 23, 2002 Author Share Posted June 23, 2002 Erms sorry dude, Didnt realise that you would need more info, its running on a windows platform. the reason i ask is because the server console is still running except that the game itself is shut down so it looks like it wouldnt be that hard to restart after a couple of hours. I dunno, hell i can't even explain what i mean anymore. hehehe Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatrixCPA Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 IF the console is still running and you can connect to it one way or anohter, then you might issue a map command to restart the server, so to speak. If that doesn't work, I'd think you need to close and restart it completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
