General question about the automatic Steam update

[Gotteshand]

Good morning

Would it be possible to extend TCAdmin with a plugin that automatically performs a Steam update?

It is very inconvenient when a game receives an update at 3:00 a.m. and the server is not available and I have to start the updates manually every time.

Does something like this already exist?

I mean that as soon as Steam provides an update for a game, the server automatically carries it out

This already exists in the Scheduled Tasks for a service. You can set it to check for an update every 15 minutes.

Hi.

Thanks for the hint, but as far as I know, there is only the possibility to perform an update, so also a restart of the server.

I just want TCAdmin to check if there is an update, if so then it should perform it. Or am I perhaps missing a script?

Configure a "Steam Update" task and tick "Update only if new version is available" under the Advanced Options tab. That way, your server is only updated if there's an update available.

Hi

I have a problem, no matter what I set, it does not repeat the check every 15 minutes but only every 24 hours

Hi.

Any idea why this is not working?

It's a bit unfavorable, because Ark Asa is constantly updating at night and the system doesn't perform these updates

Thank you very much

Set it to update every 15 minutes for 24 hours. Right now, you've set it to run every 15 minutes for 1 minute during the entire day - that's only one time.

So somehow I'm playing dumb here ^^

He does a restart and then he wants to do it again only 24 hours later

If you want to check for updates every 15 minutes the entire day, you need to set "Alle wiederholen" to 15 minutes and "Für" to 24 hours.
It means it will run the task every 15 minutes for 24 hours.
If you only want to check for updates between 06:00 and 18:00, you set the start time to "23.11.2023 06:00", "Alle wiederholen" to 15 minutes and "Für" to 12 hours. It means the task will run every 15 minutes for 12 hours (from 06:00 to 18:00).

I hope that makes sense.

Finally it worked out.

Thank you very much
