    Can somebody tell me please, how to send commands (e.g. "rcon quit 5") to Hurtworld server by shell script or manually via SSH (if server on Linux)?

    I'm trying to find a way to send commands from outside the game. Is it possible?

    Thanks.

    There currently isn't any native way aside from using the client. You could make a plugin that issues the commands, but that's about it.

    There is in fact currently a mechanism in place that can do this, but it's a bit hacky. Should work though. Place a file called "runtimeexec.cfg" in the same way that you would place your autoexec. Every 10 seconds, the server will read this file, execute the commands within, and then delete the file.
