set kakez to ({"Blockland crash on ", (current date)} as string)
tell application "System Events" to (name of processes) contains "Blockland"
if the result is false then
do shell script "open /Applications/Blockland/dedicated.command"
beep 1 --Get attention
say kakez
end if
delay 1
end repeat

--- End code ---

2 second google search brings up this.

--- Code: ---tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq notepad.exe" /FO CSV > search.log

FOR /F %%A IN (search.log) DO IF %%~zA EQU 0 GOTO end

start notepad.exe

:end

--- End code ---
could very easily be edited to use blockland dedicated.bat

It's AppleScript, it sorta looks like psuedocode, though.

It's simple since it's doing a simple task of alerting a blockland server crash and re-opening it for you.
