Again, screen has absolutely nothing to do with the server auto-restarting. Screen is just an environment for another terminal. Trying to diagnose a problem with screen will fix nothing, as it's not the issue. Screen is just a detachable tty. Not sure if most of you guys open a shell in screen first, then start the server, or if you start the server in the same line as the screen without screen opening a shell, but either way the application inside has no idea it is in a screen session.
Now that we've eliminated one thing, let's try thinking of other possibilities. Also, to whoever said -autoupdate has no effect on whether or not the server restarts... I run two servers. One that auto-updates, the other that doesn't. When I do "quit" on the one with auto-update, it restarts in 10 seconds. On the server without auto-updapte, it simply exits. While its intended use may be to update the server, it may have some extra functions. Perhaps it's so you can issue "quit" via rcon and the server will update and come back online. Of course, Valve doesn't tell us everything we might want to know about certain functions, but we must be able to come to some sort of conclusion that -autoupdate and the server restarting on "quit" are related. -Craig Moore (ping) On a side note, I'd appreciate it if you guys would quit arguing on the actual list. The "offender's" e-mail address shows, and e-mailing the person directly in a courteous manner will probably get you farther than publicly flaming the person. Of course someone is going to flame this, too, so feel free to e-mail it directly to me. I won't respond to flames on the list.
