Author Topic: Reload addon?  (Read 2420 times)

I was on this server (city RP) where the admin left for 5 mins and said he had a new addon and needed to enable it so he saved shut down the server and quickly brought it back up. He told everyone that it was an addon reloaded and he demonstrated. He put in a command or something and the chat said "reloading addon (addon name)". He explained how if you forget to enable an addon you just use this and it enables it. Does anyone know how to get this because I know it is real (I've seen it in action) I'd jut really like it for my servers so I won't have to go through all that crap of shutting down and stuff. /DISCUSS

There is a console command to do this I'm pretty sure. Also there was an add-on that did this but it was failed because it was hacky.

Reloading add-on? You mean guns?

To load an add-on into your server after initiation, put this into the console
Code: [Select]
exec("add-ons/[ADD-ON FILE NAME HERE]/server.cs");

Note that the. cs file may differ (I think).

You can do this through the console or with eval.

Already been said. Lock topic.

I know it was, I was just restating it in a single sentence.

something and the chat said "reloading addon (addon name)".
This was an old add-on that barely exists anymore. However you can do this with console commands.

System_Loadaddon

I have it, its a gui that shows you all the addons that you dont have enabled, but are in your documents. You can click one and press reload for it to load without shutting down server

I have it too, and Mctwist made it.

I do remember that. Ephialtes said it was too much of a hack and failed it.

It still works fine for me.

That doesn't work very well at all for almost everybody.

It has worked for me every time on my server. Kalphiter's dedicated service goes through eval, I think this works fine for almost everybody.
