Armagetron Forums

Hi folks,

It seems that Cheers is gone .... well, I'd like to create a server with the same settings. Would any one have them saved somewhere ?

I don't get why it says port 62238. This is not a port usually used by Armagetron. Unless there is something I don't know, and that is not documented on the wiki.

Try put

SERVER_PORT 4534

in your server_info.cfg file.

Ok, I sorted it out. Instead of using screen -S $f -X quit to kill my server game before to restart in case it is still running, I send "quit" to the armagetronad server, then I send CTRL-C to kill my loop: This is my "start" script. ./start start all my servers ./start servernam...

The idea is to restart the screen automatically if for any reason the server dies... That is why I've made the srv script below which is constantly running: #!/bin/bash arma="/etc/arma" screen -S $1 -X logtstamp on # print timestamps in log file logdir=$arma/servers/$1/logs test -d "$...

Ok, I have found part of the problem... When I kill the screen session, it does not kill the contained processes .... Therefore, it means everytime I restart a server, in fact, it did not die, and I have multiple identical servers running :-( That explains things. So now the question is: How do I ki...

hi, I have a script running multiple servers using screen (as I explain in the wiki). The problem I have is that if I restart an arma server, when I kill it it does not free the port, and when it start again, it considers the port taken, and use the next one free, even by using the SERVER_PORT varia...

Works perfectly Tx a lot.

For the carriage return, CTRL-V then ENTER

It gives a litteral ^M which is correctly interpreted.

I will post my script as soon as I've made it.

Long time no news in here :-) All this thread is very interesting. Thank you for the inspiration. I'm using screen to run my multiple servers (Fast Track). Screen is able to make a log, and is able to send commands to the console. So I expected that it would be able to get a script running at each n...

Hi all,

Finally, I have sorted this out. As stated on another post, I've posted a guide on the Wiki:

Feedback welcome.

Thank you for your feed back. I have corrected it.

Hi all. I have changed my scripts, and now, I can easily run and manage multiple servers. I have posted an article on the wiki explaining how. I'm not a king in scripting, but this works pretty well. Hope my scripting is not too dirty. http://wiki.armagetronad.net/index.php?title=Running_Multiple_Se...

Hi, I have tried to run my Fast Track Reloaded server with the pig-sty version. But nwo, when I try to connect with the client, it says my client needs un upgrade :-( I have no idea what could be the setting which gives this limitation :-( Any help welcome: Here are the settings: map_file Anonymous/...

Use DEDICATED_IDLE 0 if you want your server to run forever without quitting, or, better, launch them from a shell script that runs it over and over again. I have to create a script which launch screen which launch arma in a loop ... RIght now, my script launch screen which launch directly arma... ...

Hi.

I use GNU Screen for my arma servers. It works quite well, however, for an unknown reason, it kills the process after some hours, sometimes two or three days...

I have no clue why ! Would anyone know why ?

Cheers

Great... It works..... Fast Track Euro CTF... I will personalize settings.... Another question: Is this version also working for any other standard server ? or do I need the original one I currently have a binary in my /bin directory for the original version. Can I just overwrite it with the Pig Sty...
