I have seen a few restart plugins, but these require you to open some sort of file, does this only work if your hosting it on your computer? I pay for hosting from a company, is there any plugin that would let me restart my server every hour or so? Thanks
rixopod A plugin that reloads the server, kicks all players. Saves the world etc is possible. Restarting is not...
rixopod I could make something for you that kicks all players, saves the world. and reloads the server. You might want to use McMyAdmin tough. It could do this for you.
rixopod There you go: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/37424916/Plugins/HourRestart.jar Every hour it restarts all plugins, saves all worlds. And kicks all players. This plugin will glitch in combination with Spout tough.
Yes, just had our first restart, works well. I thought i would be linked to a plugin so i didnt want to be to picky , thas why im adding features now. Would this of broken some terrain loading? After the restart our spawn area wouldnt load. Any ideas? Edit: Fixed on another restart EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
rixopod Hmmm, there are already alot of "Backup" plugins. Just use one of those. rixopod Nahh, almost impossible. It only SAVES the world. Soooo, EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
but then the timings will be different D: Oh well, thanks for the help! Erm... it just restarted again.. and there were more loading errors EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
You can also use /reload if you need to reload plugin config or server settings without restarting and kicking players.
You could get a server wrapper called RemoteToolkit, it has automatic restart functions. Like, actually restart. Not reload, save-all and kick, but full restart.
Reloading is actually not such a great idea. Just use a wrapper, there must be one that fits your situation. EDIT: the linked post also contains plugins that restart your server.
WalkerCrouse Restarting is not possible? How do you want to do it? Bukkit cannot CLOSE itsself and than restart itsself lol.
If you are using windows you can use this plugin with a loop in the batch file. (I did not create this plugin, i just use it on my server) http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/ad...t-down-at-the-same-time-every-day-1248.26101/ Code: :begin SET BINDIR=%~dp0 CD /D "%BINDIR%" "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar craftbukkit.jar goto begin
