Server configuration basics

Hello all.

I've learned how to setup a server through batch commands like -server.hostname "My New Server" however it would be good if there is a way to save the configurations made during the game (or rcon console) to the existing server.


for instance, through the rcon console I write this:
server.hostname "My Amazing Server"
then when I do server.hostname, I can see that server name is changed. But when the server is restarted, it gets the old name.
I've tried doing server.savecfg but it doens't seem to work. Server.save also doesn't work for this condition, no matter what I tried when the server is restarted id gets a different name then what I set.


So my question is: is it possible to make it work in the way I am trying? It would be really handy for quick changes, without the need ot login to the server and change batch commands every signel time.

Looking for a solution, thanks!

 

Hm, I've tried that actually, for some reason it's not "reading" (or applying) the details.
Where should I create the file? Here like this? http://i.imgur.com/Qj5dfw7.png

Tried placing the file into various different places, does not look like it's being read or applied any way.

 

oh. on nitrous-networks you can't set custom -commands when starting a server (their configuration only allows ticking and unticking things). For some reason it's not auto-loaded.

 

it has a single line:
server.secure false

 

Yes, I've tried anıther single line:

server.hostname "my test hostname"

also didn't work.

 

I can download/upload using ftp, everything seems correct :/
