[ANY] Automatic Steam Update (v1.1, 2016-06-17)
 

Description:
This plugin is basically [TF2] Automatic Steam Update, but instead of using SteamTools, it uses SteamWorks.

Commands:
sm_postponeupdate - postpone the update for a predefined period of time (default flag is ADMFLAG_RCON)
sm_updatetimer - force the update timer to begin immediately (default flag is ADMFLAG_RCON)

Cvars:

• sw_auto_steam_update_version - plugin version
• auto_steam_update_timer - (default 5) how long in minutes the timer lasts until the server is restarted
• auto_steam_update_message_display_time - (default 5) no notifications will be shown to clients until the timer is below this threshold (in minutes)
• auto_steam_update_delay - (default 5) how long in minutes the plugin will ignore restart requests after an update is postponed
• auto_steam_update_lock - (default 0) 0 = don't lock the server during the restart timer / 1 = change sv_password during the restart timer / 2 = kick new clients (except admins) during the restart timer
• auto_steam_update_password - (default "") the string to change sv_password to if auto_steam_update_lock = 1
• auto_steam_update_kickmessage - (default "The server will shut down soon to acquire Steam updates, so no new connections are allowed") the message to display when kicking clients if auto_steam_update_lock = 2
• auto_steam_update_shutdown_message - (default "Server shutting down for Steam update") the message shown to clients when they are kicked as the server is shutting down
• auto_steam_update_hud_text_x_pos - (default 0.01) X-position for HUD timer (only on supported games) -1.0 = center
• auto_steam_update_hud_text_y_pos - (default 0.01) Y-position for HUD timer (only on supported games) -1.0 = center
• auto_steam_update_hud_text_red - (default 0) Amount of red for HUD timer (only on supported games)
• auto_steam_update_hud_text_green - (default 255) Amount of green for HUD timer (only on supported games)
• auto_steam_update_hud_text_blue - (default 0) Amount of blue for HUD timer (only on supported games)
• auto_steam_update_auto_update - (default 1) enables automatic plugin updating (has no effect if Updater is not installed)

Plugin creates and loads /cfg/sourcemod/plugin.autosteamupdate.cfg

The advantage of using 1 in auto_steam_update_lock is that clients will be denied before attempting to connect. The advantage of using 2 is that admins will be able to bypass it without knowing a password.

Installation:
Put auto_steam_update.smx into /addons/sourcemod/plugins and reboot your server or type "sm plugins load auto_steam_update" into your console or rcon.

Requirements:
This plugin requires SteamWorks and SteamWorks.ext Update Check.

Thank you, will this work for csgo (windows)

Re: [ANY] Automatic Steam Update (SteamWorks)
 

Any game that supports SteamWorks, yes.

Re: [ANY] Automatic Steam Update (SteamWorks)
 

How, can someone help me.

I run a csgo windows server.


I have the exts and plugin installed, but how do I get it to update the server.

Re: [ANY] Automatic Steam Update (SteamWorks)
 

You wait for an update to be released.

Re: [ANY] Automatic Steam Update (SteamWorks)
 

And make sure you have a script to run SteamCMD when the server restarts.

I use seDirector, so I'm covered.

If your on linux, use -autoupdate

Support Linux on CSGO?

Re: [ANY] Automatic Steam Update (SteamWorks)
 

Its not needed for linux, Use -autoupdate in command line.

Re: [ANY] Automatic Steam Update (SteamWorks)
 

Actually, like the plugin its based on, this only works on Linux servers that are set up with -autoupdate (with -steam_dir and -steamcmd_script since those are both mandatory for -autoupdate to work).

Basically it starts a timer to change the map to force the server to update. This is useful on maps that are set to never end or servers that are empty without hibernating.

(hibernating servers aren't ticking, so.... timers don't run)

For those that are wanting to test this I would imagin Valve will release a update tonight for Xmas.
