[mohaa] Server restart script

[Luca Fabbro]

I'm using the following files to kill the right mohaa process

I'm not using screen so if you whant to use it you shold change the row 
that starts the server :)

A kinfd of config in one file

#Root directory
GAMEDIR="/usr/local/games/mohaa"
#Program to run
PROG="./mohaa_lnxded"
#Port
PORT="12210"
#Gamespy port
GSPORT="12307"
#Config
CONFIG="my_mohaa.cfg"

The start up script

#Put here path to config file
. my_config_file
#Enters game dir
cd $GAMEDIR
#Loop forever
while [ 1 ]
do
#Check for a specific IP to set
if [ "$IP" == "" ]
then
  IPS=""
else
  IPS=" +set net_IP $IP"
fi
#Starts the server
$PROG +exec $CONFIG +set net_port $PORT$IPS +set net_gamespy_port $GSPORT 
+set vm_game 0 +set ttycon 0 +set dedicated 2
# Sleep a while
sleep 10
done

The kill script is the following
#Put here path to config file
. my_config_file
#Searches for pid of server
ps auxwww | grep $PROG | grep $PORT | grep $CONFIG | grep -v grep | gawk 
'{print $2}' | xargs kill
#Checks kill exit status
if [ 0 != $? ]
then
     echo "Server Down"
else
     echo "Server Killed"
fi

Hope that this helps

Ciao
         Luca
