Kewl Oddball, the multi commands in one script now works?

you mean like this? this is a scipt from a mission Doghouse3 made

Steam files copied to parts\core directory as advised by a developer does not work unfortunately.

Try setting up a separate Steam account on the machine where you run a dedi server. This Steam account can be completely empty, i.e. without any games purchased according to the admin of Repka server.

Ok ...6 hours of trial and error has had some positive results :)
all you need to run(tested) the dedicated server is
parts folder with just the core in it
Launcher.exe
Launcher,exe.config
launchergdf,dll

Bad new is that if I take those file mentioned above and move them to another location and Launch the server the window will open but it is followed by a "steamgameserver_init call failed" :(
now i tried copying the steam DLL files that were mentioned in another thread along with some other I thought might help but after trying 50 different ways to launch it i gave up :( this problem is has todo with steam.
Good news is you can start the server with out modifying the launcher :)
open a CMD window navigate to the steam folder and type in
the obove would be nice if it could be made ito some kind of batch file that would auto start as soon as the computer is started.

here are some more commands ,the most intriguing is the -script one however i could not get it t work :(

I don't think making an empty steam account and copying the aforementioned files will work because i think steam will tell you "you dont own that game" but i might be wrong :)

if your going to i would make a il2 folder just like the one you have and drop it in the same location Steam\steamapps\Common and then try the launch method above.

S!

I am talking about the cmd files, obviously got my terminology wrong, busy today will try and experiment tomorrow.

Keenly watching and waiting ;)

Thanks.

if your trying to rotate maps or maintain a certain time of day i can tell if you how to if you like

I can do that, but getting the not destroyed actor on new mission, is that a bug or mission design error?

I think it is neither a bug nor error. This is the concept of CloD online. There is no such thing as mission as it was in original IL-2, e.g. you can not just unload a mission. A mission in CloD is just new mission objectives like in real life. In real life when mission is over actors do not just disappear if they are still alive. When you load a new mission you are actually just adding new objectives to your current mission. And this is the beauty of CloD as it gets closer to real life simulation.

I think to clear a server from all the actors you have to run a script that specifically does this (destroys actors) or restart server.

So in effect the number of AI increases with each mission load?
