Dedicated Server HOW-TO

[Blackrat]

Just watched the server rotate, all in the Dos box is okay and reports battle started again, but clients time out. I checked the processes and launcher was maxxing out one of the cores and using 518mb of RAM. Deffo a bug or something happening when stopping a battle and restarting it after reloading the mission.

thank you for your reports!
we are reading almost all topics, but haven't much time to reply.

We are checking rotation script, no errors as i can see.
may be a new beta-patch (from 27 april) will fix problems.

What is the exact path to where one would put the missions either downloaded or created. I see a number of folders one name "mission" another is " missions" and they are both in the IL2 club folder and the steam common folder.

Please explain.

Thank you.

public override void OnPlaceLeave(Player player, AiActor actor, int placeIndex)
    {
        base.OnPlaceLeave(player, actor, placeIndex);
        Timeout(1, () =>
        {
            AiAircraft CurAircraft = player.Place() as AiAircraft;
            AiAircraft PrevAircraft = actor as AiAircraft;
            if (CurAircraft != PrevAircraft)   
                { (actor as AiAircraft).Destroy(); }
        });
    }

OnBattleStoped have not parameters, just OnBattleStoped()

Thanks I understand now. You had to put the path in the "missLoad XXX.mis" command.

Thank you.

I dont think we need to use the cmd to rotate maps anymore...let me have a look at a script i was missing with and ill get back to you

[Thee_oddball]

i am trying to add this to a script but i keep getting a CS1518 error when compiling (42,21 Where the BOLD type is) I looked it up but still cannot figure out what i have done wrong..trying to get it to kill all the actors upon switching map

public override void OnBattleStoped(AiActor actor, int placeIndex)
{
base.OnBattleStoped(actor, placeIndex);
Timeout(1, () =>
{
AiAircraft CurAircraft = AiActor.Place() as AiAircraft;
AiAircraft PrevAircraft = actor as AiAircraft;
if (CurAircraft != PrevAircraft)
{ (actor as AiAircraft).Destroy(); }
}
}
