I don't really got what you want, but POL does defenitely automatically stop when your computer does
Since I'm no Linux Guru I don't know of any other way then
kill to stop the server by a shell script.
To shut down your server at a specific time every day, UO:ShutDown() might be helpful:
Code:
use os;
use uo;
program shut_down(who)
// Check here, if it's time for shutdown
BroadCast ("System shutdown in 3 minutes!");
Sleep (180);
SaveWorldState ();
ShutDown ();
endprogram
We are stopping and restarting the server (not the computer) every morning after the maintenance using a cron job.
