Usage

For the console mod, press CTRL+A then D to stop the screen without stopping the server.

  • start - Start the server with the PARAM_START var in a screen.
  • stop - Stop the server and close the screen loaded.
  • status - Display the status of the server (screen down or up)
  • restart - Restart the server (stop && start)
  • console - Display the server console where you can enter commands.

Example of automatic restart with cron

You can automatically restart your game server by calling the script in a crontab. Just add this line in your crontab and change the folder if necessary.

0 5 * * * cd /path/to/script && ./cod2script restart >/dev/null 2>&1

This will restart your server every day at 5 am.
