95% Sure that there is no books on running source servers. Neither any books on SourcePawn. The best you have for source pawn is the scripting forum and the wiki. For source servers, there are many tutorials in the internet and youtube.

Hello RTWNick, thanks for the reply!

Well, anyone can correct me if im wrong, but i belive sourcemod is just a Pawn libary, added to the script with the "include" command.
Theres is a website base on that language (or script, i dont know anymre)
http://www.compuphase.com/pawn/pawn.htm

But i need something more scientific, can be an article too
It can be from anything related to multiplayer games, game server..
its a very hard find books of these themes, but if you know anything, even a little far from this.. please ..


Thanks!

Edit: Damn, im so dumb!
I see now an "Published articles" on the pawn website, its gonna help a lot!
;D

But i still need some about game server ;)

SourcePawn is a fork of a much earlier version of Pawn, and the entire runtime was written from scratch for SourceMod (and large parts of the compiler re-written).

I assume from your wording you're looking for something to cite, rather than actual reference material?

Yes! Exactly!
I will develop a web application that will talk to a source based server, and a script in sourcepawn to extract information from the server and send to a database.

I'm documenting a prototype right now, thats why i need some books and articles..
Right know im using Game design books and some articles about multiplayer games developing.
