jimos 10 Posted September 12, 2013 Hey guys is there a way to tell players on my server of restart announcements even if im not in game, can you use rcon to do this. ie i have changed the server config and need to restart so i globally announce to players outside of the game to give them warning?

bravo17 1 Posted September 13, 2013 B3 (Big Brother Bot) at www.bigbrotherbot.net - you can use the telnet plugin to do this. You can get the latest files from http://files.cucurb.net/b3/daily/ - there have been a few Arma specific improvements since the latest official release 1.9.1, so use the latest daily build instead.

dave_beastttt 135 Posted September 14, 2013 Why not install BEC and use that to announce and shutdown the server, with an autorestarter to reboot it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimos 10 Posted September 15, 2013 Becuase for some reason blue fang solutions wont run bec.exe for us we have asked them repeatdly so we are moving servers next month anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
holo89 10 Posted September 16, 2013 you could check the clipboard in a spawned script code and look for a certain string, on the other hand, in your batch on the server you copy the string before the reboot. never tried though, but could be a quick solution Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was always in the mind that I could use this one day for inter-process communication... fast implementation with scripting language like auto-it....
