Auto Command On Update

Description

A SourceMod plugin that executes a console command on SRCDS servers when a game update is detected. This plugins relies on a forward call in SteamWork's Update Check plugin here. Therefore, you will need the plugin and SteamWorks for this plugin to operate.

Additionally, a warning timer is supported.

This works great for servers that automatically check for SteamCMD updates on startup. This would essentially enable automatic game updating for your game servers.

Requirements

For compiling the plugin, you need SteamWork's include file (SteamWorks.inc) alongside MultiColors.

ConVars

  • sm_acou_command - The command to execute when a game update is detected (Default - quit).
  • sm_acou_warn_time - Warning time in seconds before command is executed when an update is detected (Default - 10).
  • sm_acou_version - The plugin's current version.

Commands

  • sm_acou_print_version - Prints the current plugin's version to the server console.
  • sm_acou_test - Executes the command when an update is detected and includes the warning time.

Note - Both commands require the root flag.
