Shamster I believe _restart is a blocked console command only clientside apparently, I guess it would work then

Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it!


You’re right by default the system uses changelevel. However, it is possible to configure it to perform a full restart by changing the setting in sh_config.lua. I realize I may have described it incorrectly in my previous message, so thanks for pointing that out.

And about that the UI could benefit from a nicer font is something I’ll definitely consider for a future update.


Best regards,Pentex

Looks pretty nice, the UI could do with a nicer font imo. If you want to do full restarts instead of changelevel you could maybe look into using the Pterodactyl API (which is what most hosts use)

Sweet Thank you for reaching out and for your interest.

The server restarts by using the changelevel command by default. Here’s how it works:

Default method (changelevel):

  1. The server reloads the current map (e.g. changelevel gm_flatgrass).
  2. This fully restarts the server — all players disconnect and the map is reloaded from scratch.
  3. It clears memory, resets all entities, and performs a complete clean startup.


So yes—technically it “changes map” to the same map, which results in a full server restart.


Best regards,

Pentex

Curious, How does it restart server?


Fully restart server? or change map?


None the less the scheduling aspect and player tracking is a neat concept.

I do agree. I found this super useful as I could restart when population is low

Sylex22 Thanks for the feedback!

This is a relatively simple addon designed to make it easy to keep track of your server like when the most players are active and the best times to push an update. I’m actually working on something bigger and more advanced, but this one is meant as a quick and helpful tool for server owners who want an easier way to manage things

glws but I have made a system like this before and it is quite simple

Shamster Thanks for your feedback!


I really appreciate hearing your thoughts. I understand that some server hosts already have similar features built into their admin menus, and it’s definitely possible to do this manually. This addon isn’t meant to force anyone to buy it

it’s designed as a helpful tool for server owners who want an easy way to schedule restarts, track player insights, and manage their server more efficiently without having to monitor everything manually. The goal is to save time and make server management smoother, but you can absolutely manage without it if you prefer.

Since this is my first addon I’m selling, the price isn’t fully adjusted yet, and I plan to find the right price for this and future addons over time. I’ll also continue improving it to add more value and make it even more user-friendly. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts, it really helps!

If you have any ideas or suggestions about features or the price, feel free to send me a private message—I’d be happy to take a look!

Best regards,

Pentex

Pentex I'll respond later when i cbb writing shenanigans out, apologies for the unprepared statement!

Indecisive Thanks for the feedback! I’m always happy to hear suggestions. Saying 'UI could use some work' is a bit too general—if you have specific ideas about what could be improved, like layout, colors, or button placement, that would be really helpful!
