Thank you for the in-depth response.
Happy to help!

If I added a checkbox that says "Wait to update until there are 0 players on the server" would that work for your case? I can add that no problem, but just be aware of the potential problems I mentioned before.

- You'd have to wait until all 10 players leave the server
Could make him update the server when he changes maps, even if a game update has come out, and there are players on the server they can finish playing the map, competitive, whatever the game mode, but the map has changed everyone has to update the game because the server is going to be updated.

I believe that the OGP Panel works like this.

- Checks if there is an update when the server starts;
- If there is an update and there are players on the server when changing the map, the server updates and all players need to have the game updated to enter;
- Or you can shut down the server and update the server manually;

Yes, that is perfect in my case. My 1v1 server will work in a queue so after the server updates I can resume the queue.

Thank you!!

Would it work if seDirector would update the server on map change? Or do you specifically need it when there are 0 players?

In my case it would be 0 players. since I am creating a 1v1 server there is a lot of times where the server is hibernating waiting for a new match to start, when new match is found it would be ideally to check for an update then I can let the players into the server. Unless you think there is a better way to do this, that is just my idea of how I am thinking is the best way.

Okay. We'll work on incorporating that option into seDirector. Join our Discord for the latest news and on version releases.

Thanks!
