    This is an interesting plugin. But appears to do nothing other than notify once the forward is fired. Wouldn't a repeating timer be beneficial here?

    Would all i need to do is add the following?

    Code:
    DoMessage()
    {
        CreateTimer(10.0, Steam_RestartRequested, _, TIMER_REPEAT)
    }

    The Outdated do plugin creates a file on the server when an update is needed for scripting purposes but this is something i don't need and can't do anyway.
    I had used that plugin as a reference when creating this plugin but in my case I wanted the plugin to send a Msg to the connected users via chat when the server is reported outdated.

    This way it would alert connected users to log out and check if a new update would download; if an admin was on it would also serve the purpose to notify him/her that it needed to be updated..

    The thread on the other plugin is confusing but it can be used to the same effect if I'm reading right, good plugin though. Keep on making them.

    Initial release.
    outdated.cfg
    Code:
    sm_chat "I think we need to update the server, or just me??"
    We're up at 3 + plugins now can be roughly the same


    [TF2]Steam Update Notifer
    • My plugin can be the same (tweak?), of course you plugin do it a little bit more elegant

    Update Notifier
    • Same as your plugin?


    SRCDSAdmin - auto-update Windows servers
    • Only difference is the filename of the created file, and this plugin warn players as default (outdated.cfg)
    • My plugin also check for players on the server
    So now we certainly do not need more of it here kind of plugin
