It's completely unnecessary to do this when the user can just cd to the
correct directory himself. Lots of scripts require you to be in the
correct directory - try calling 'make' from the wrong location...
What does make have to do with starting a srcds?

Can I ask something here, and please understand I'm not
trolling/flaming, but it's apparent that some of the people who have
contributed to this discussion are not the most experience Linux
admins so this question I think needs to be asked.
Has anyone tried making sure that the script is giving

can not - should not, and change exit to read. People should
not run it as root, but if they are taking the risk of running as such
they shouldn't

Second thing, the normal srcds_run script uses /bin/sh, look at the
head of the script.
The shebang enforces it. So the POSIX command substitution isn't
supportet in bourne shell.

The best solution is to leave as is. Anything else will risk breakage
for lots of servers...

I just read on a forum that some people had issues starting their servers.
They tried something like:
some/path/srcds_run -parameters
which does not work because the srcds_run needs to be run from its
directory.
Could someone at valve add something like
cd $(dirname $0)

You could start the server with a script that would do the following:
cd /home/gameserver1/srcds_l
./srcds_run -game cstrike +maxplayers 20 +map de_dust +ip IP -port PORT

Why are you trying so hard not to understand the point of the original mail
from a poster who obviously also knows how to use Linux?
Ulrich Block, I'm with you on this one, any suggestion to make the startup
easier without breaking it for users who know how to do things the proper
way is a go in
This caught me up as well, as a work around I just ran cd in the
screen before the I launched the wrapper.
It would be great to have this changed,
Kyle.

Don't give them ideas. A cd is usually not that friendly as you find
