Auto Restart and other...

[PowerHouseZer0]

Welcome,
I am PowerHouse. I am running a dedicated gmod server off of the tf2/2007 server platform. I would like to know how to make it auto restart. I have yet another question, but lets address this issue first. Thanks for reading.

There are a few ways of doing this.

One is to use the SRCDSguardian batch file and disable error reporting, you can find this batch script on these forums.

Another possibility is a program called serverchecker, it's a program that will close the memory error and restart the server.

OK i have located both programs and installed, however , after reading the other threads, i still am experiencing problems...the guardian file says unable to locate the server, i changed the command value to that which is executed from the icon....""C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -applaunch 310" This could be the problem , im not sure please help me though...

Ya... DON'T USE STEAM.
Use SRCDS.

ok i tried that, that would make alot more sense, but now it seems it doesnt recognize the command after which is:
-game sandbox -maxplayers 8 +fps_max 200 -port 27016 +map gm_flatgrass2008 -tickrate 66
perhaps u can paste a working example? i really need this to work..

This is what I use for counter-strike source....just replace it with your game along with changing the map. You forgot to input "-console" in the beginning of your command line.

Perfect. You were very helpful! just one last issue, how do i set the max ping, i seems to have people joining that have a ridiculous ping, id like to set the max ping at 200, is there a code i type in the server console. Also im running Ulx/Ulib, not sure if thats any help.just fyi. Thanks !!

There isn't a default function to use, I think ULX mod should have one though, you should check it out int he functions.
