Server restart Chat warnings

[Rico226]

So I am hosting a Server for the DCS group I am with and can not find any info on how to setup an automated Chat message that will warn anyone in the server of how long before the server restarts next as well as any other Admin chat messages I might want to include that are all automated. Any help on this would be much appreciated, Thank you!

When you write "restart" is it a restart of the mission or is it a restart of the DCS host?

 

If its a restart of the DCS executable, do you know that this is not necessary anymore? Most of the major memory leak issues have been fixed.

 

If you're using the dedicated server its enough just to cycle a light mission between two heavy missions to refresh the server.

It's really depend on how is build your server.

Our 24/7 public server for example has fixed time schedule restart, so we directly put in the mission the flag with condition times more than with message warning about server restart.

It will not be 100% accurate, but it's around 1 minutes of misalignment, we start 45 mins before and warning at 30/15/10/5 mins before so the players has time to check the clock and land safe before restart.
