Is there anyway for SourceMod to detect when steam tells a server that it's out of date? It isn't broadcast as part of a UDP message when using log message... looking to automate an update trigger.

No ideas? Is this something that metamod may be more suited to do? Are these messages that either of them can intercept?

I believe you can just add -autoupdate to your servers command line.

Set these in the addons/sourcemod/configs/core.cfg

PHP Code:

"DisableAutoUpdate" "no"
"ForceRestartAfterUpdate" "yes"
"AutoUpdateURL" "http://update.sourcemod.net/update/"

That's sourcemod, not steam master server heartbeat.

Linux only

One option would be a daemon which polls the text in all srcds console windows every so often.

Greyscale: Your server is out of date

*Server shuts down and tries to update*



With some stricter checks you can prevent this, but this would be one heck of an exploit.

Find the function in the binaries and detour it then.

No idea how to do that... that's why I was looking for a SourceMod catch. If I can catch it in a plugin, I can make a "specific" message that our external system can watch for and for an update/restart.

Could your 'external system' watch the rcon output instead of using a sourcemod plugin?
