Experimenting with (Valheim) commandlines.

[Sukkerpups]

 

Hello, i'm not quite sure where this topic should go, but i hope in here will be fine.

I'm experminenting a bit on a Valheim test server when it comes to adding something to a default command line (and commandlines in general), and i would like to learn how it works. I would like to add "-logfile logfilename.txt" to the default command line.

In "Games & Other Voice servers">Valheim>Commandlines i have this command line:

"-nographics -batchmode -name "![Servername]" -port $[Service.GamePort] -savedir $[Service.RootDirectory]world_name -world "![World]" -password "![Serverpasswort]" -public ![Publik]"

To help me understand this a little better and how it works, how can i add "-logfile logfilename.txt" to the default command line so it actually outputs a log? Because adding just "-logfile logfilename.txt" in to the command line gives me this error "CreateDirectory '' failed: The system does not find the specified path. (current dir: )".

So, i'm guessing i'm doing something wrong here and i'm missing out on something.

Some suggestions and pointers would be appreciated, thank you.

Logs are already stored. No commandline necessary. You can activate web console to read log file so you can see server loading up or activate logs to be read in file manager etc...
