We really need a plugin that'll reboot the server every 24 hours or specified time.

We use ace reboot for eventscripts and we'd like to get away from eventscripts entirely please

Can you paste the eventscript code here, please? Also, do your servers auto-reboot when they are closed/crash?

Plugin here: Server Crontab

Config file goes here:
tf/cfg/sourcemod/sc_jobs.cfg

//
// Basic Server Crontab configuration file
//
// # = Weekday Start. Format is 0 = Sunday to 6 = Saturday
//
// # # = Weekday End. Format is 0 = Sunday to 6 = Saturday
//
// # # # = Start hour of the day. The hour is in 24h format (0-23)
//
// # # # # = End hour of the day. The hour is in 24h format (0-23)
//
// # # # # # = Start minute of the hour (0-59)
//
// # # # # # # = End minute of the hour (0-59)
//
// Use ? to ignore the current weekday/hour/minute
//
//

// Reboot the server everyday of the week at 5am
sc_addjob ? ? 05 05 00 00 "quit"

That's exactly what I need. You guys rock my socks.

I think rebooting the srcds, without killing it doesnt help on the memory leak issue, wich is i assume the reason you are trying this.


You should do a kill+start from crontab with a shell script, to do it properly.

[ottobohn]

Event script does fix the memory leak actually.

ace reboot

You shouldn't use quit to restart a source dedicated server, the srcds_run script will detect that it was killed on purpose and not restart it exept somebody modified that script or created an additional restart/monitoring system. The recommended command is _restart which will kill the actual gameserver binary and the srcds_run script keeps running and restarts the binary automatically.

thanks for the tip.

Changed my tf/cfg/sourcemod/sc_jobs.cfgto:

//
// Basic Server Crontab configuration file
//
// # = Weekday Start. Format is 0 = Sunday to 6 = Saturday
//
// # # = Weekday End. Format is 0 = Sunday to 6 = Saturday
//
// # # # = Start hour of the day. The hour is in 24h format (0-23)
//
// # # # # = End hour of the day. The hour is in 24h format (0-23)
//
// # # # # # = Start minute of the hour (0-59)
//
// # # # # # # = End minute of the hour (0-59)
//
// Use ? to ignore the current weekday/hour/minute
//
//

// Reboot the server everyday of the week at 5am
sc_addjob ? ? 05 05 00 00 "_restart"
