7 Days to Die Server Utility

Dateranoth

By Dateranoth

    • I modified my Cube World Server Utility to work with 7 Days to Die. I also added a customizable ini file.

    NOTE! If you do not use the PuttyTel client to restart all restarts are hard restarts. The server process is closed, and it is closed when you exit the script. I have tested this, and it doesn't seem to be affecting save files, but you have been warned.

    Features:

    • Optional Daily Restarts
    • Keep Server Alive. Restart on Crash
    • Log Excessive Memory Use
    • Option to Restart on Excessive Memory Use
    • Option to Remotely Restart Server
    • Logs restart request, current memory being used, and if the utility requested or a certain IP
    • Safely shutdown the server through telnet via puttytel.exe and save server day

    The remote restart utility is a separate program. It allows you to connect and remotely restart a server.

    You can download the 7dServerUtility and 7dServerRemoteRestart compiled exe's HERE. (VirusScan)

    You can download the 7dServerUtility and 7dServerRemoteRestart AutoIT Source HERE.

    A special thanks to Nightmare from the 7 days to die forum for the telnet info!

Installation Instructions:

Place 7dServerUtility.exe in the same directory as 7DaysToDie.exe and run once. It will create a default INI file that you will need to modify for your server. Once you have modified the ini, restart the script and enjoy.

If you want to use Putty to safely shutdown the server, then visit http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html and download puttytel.exe .

Place puttytel.exe in the same directory as 7dServerUtility.exe

Remote Restart Instructions:

Run 7dServerRemoteRestart.exe from anywhere. It will create a default INI file that you must modify. Modify the INI file and fill in the server IP and Restart Port. Optionally you can fill in the password field and it will save it so you don't have to type it each time.

v1.2 is out. Nightmare from the 7 Days to Die forum was nice enough to share the telnet info for the server.

 

Now with the use of puttytel.exe the server can be safely shutdown instead of just having the process killed. This saves the time and helps make sure blocks are saved.  Simply download the new script from here, then download puttytel.exe from Putty's Site and place both in the directory containing 7daystodie.exe

Update: Fixed Server forcefully shutting down when exiting script. It will now use PuTTyTel.exe to gracefully shutdown if available.

Also wanted to note that Putty is optional, if you don't place puttytel.exe in the directory with the script, it will force the process to close instead.

Hi everyone, this looks really helpful.  I have a question, I am running on a dedicated remote server, running multiple servers on the hardware and wanted to ask if this can manage multiple servers? 

 

Has anyone used this for more than one server running on a machine before?  

Thanks,

 

Hunter

In its current state it will work as long as you follow these guidelines:

You have to use PuttyTel to shut down.

You will need to run a separate instance for each server and each server will need to be its own directory.

You will need to change the listen ports for the remote shutdown to be different from each other.

Finally, it may not be necessary, but I recommend you stagger the daily restart times by at least 5 minutes.

Any new updates in the works for this utility? I absolutely love your Conan Server Utility and I would love to have the same for the 7 Days To Die.  I wish for the same features: automatically check for and install updates (stable and experimental) and notify Discord or in-game users of server restarts.

Thanks!  I would also be willing to donate if it would motivate :)

I haven't written any programs since my Commodore 64 days, but I am going to work on updating your 7dServerUtility to include the latest features of your ConanServerUtility.  I am also going to add a parameter to enable it to work with the latest experimental 7DTD version. THANK YOU very much for posting your AutoIT Source codes for the Server Utility programs!

Sorry I haven't been around to see this! Been a bit busy of late, but I'm glad you were able to update this to continue working with 7days to Die!  I'm not always on top of the posts, but if you need me, shoot me a Direct Message.
