Alternative templated messages for warnings?

[dahlskebank]

Um... is there a template somewhere that I can understand? Tried decoding the French one, but my brain just shuts off when I read French...

msgWarnReason="This ARK server will shutdown for {reason} in {time}"
msgTimeMinutes="{minutes} minutes"
msgTimeSeconds="{seconds} seconds"
msgReasonUpdateApp="an update to the game"
msgReasonUpdateMod="an update to mod(s) {modnamesupdated}"
msgReasonUpdateAppMod="an update to the game and an update to mod(s) {modnamesupdated}"
msgReasonRestart="a restart"

Can I simply paste that into arkmanager.cfg and it'll work? So hard to actually test this unless I'm online when a mod or ark updates...

That should work, and you will want to specify something for the msgReasonShutdown setting - e.g.:

msgReasonShutdown="maintenance"

An alternative might be:

msgWarnReason="This ARK server will {reason} in {time}"
msgTimeMinutes="{minutes} minutes"
msgTimeSeconds="{seconds} seconds"
msgReasonUpdateApp="restart for an update to the game"
msgReasonUpdateMod="restart for an update to mod(s) {modnamesupdated}"
msgReasonUpdateAppMod="restart for an update to the game and an update to mod(s) {modnamesupdated}"
msgReasonRestart="restart"
msgReasonShutdown="shut down"

or:

msgWarnReason="This ARK server will shut down in {time} {reason}"
msgTimeMinutes="{minutes} minutes"
msgTimeSeconds="{seconds} seconds"
msgReasonUpdateApp="for an update to the game"
msgReasonUpdateMod="for an update to mod(s) {modnamesupdated}"
msgReasonUpdateAppMod="for an update to the game and an update to mod(s) {modnamesupdated}"
msgReasonRestart="for a server restart"
msgReasonShutdown=""

Awesome! Thanks! Was able to test restart and shutdown message on our test-server, so I'll assume app and mod works perfectly as well.

It made more sense when written like this, the way it is explained in README is too complex for me... not sure why this isn't added as standard to all new configs... anywho, thanks again!
