Add a way to detect crashes [feature request] #30

Open Synergyst opened 3 years ago

Synergyst commented 3 years ago

Is there a way to create a temp lock file of some sort with a stored variable (ie: 1 to signify a still-running/crashed server, 0 for not running, empty/non-existent for fresh install/non-running).

I like the software, however this might be more useful for the RAMDisk feature.

Our server was running fine, then unexpectedly was shut off due to a power fault.. However when I restarted it a user notified me of the server not running the most recent version of our map.. I rolled it back, and it should be good now as far as the last backup goes.

Hopefully you all think this would be a useful feature! Maybe you can trigger a Discord hook or something to message a channel about a possible crash detection if that is something possible on your guy's roadmap for this project! :)

Kind regards.
