Bonjour Procyon, I never launch game with '-autoupdate'.
Every morning a script make a backup of some files (motd, mapcycle ...) then launch an update with "./steam" command line. Then, it restore backuped files and check the gameinfo.txt with a script from metamod. This way I never loose motd and mapcycle, metamod is alway ok and it solves memory leak problem. Rom1.
