Auto-restarting CloD server with AutoIt

Ataros · #2 08-15-2011, 07:28 AM

Update.

reboot.cmd restarts Windows

Code:

shutdown /r /t 5

Windows autostart contains:
1) AutoIt script
2) Steam
3) .cmd file starting launcher and mission in it with tst10.exe program (scripted telnet ?)

Code:

timeout 180
CD C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\
start /high Launcher.exe -server
cd C:\autocod
echo %date% %time% restart server>> repka_log.txt
timeout 15
tst10.exe /r:Start-Mission.txt /m

2 daily server restarts are scheduled via Windows Task Scheduler at 07.00 and 19.00 MSK just in case.

All 2 Repka servers are running a desktop versions of Windows (Win7-64 probably) for compatibility with some online missions (e.g. 2nd campaign by stillborn). All 3 are run on one physical server on virtual machines that allows running 3 copies of Steam on the same hardware at the same time.
