Upgrade script automatically

[Estevam2d]

Is there any script that I can use to update the other script on the server ?

I believe that its possible to do it via fetchRemote, overwriting script files and then doing restartResource.

I wanted to restart a script at time 15000 and do not know how to do this.

You can use in order to restart every 15000ms (or any other time-difference)

setTimer

Well, I feel so much sorry to the pc who will explode because of the RAM overuse caused by Timers. I do not advise you to restart a resource every short period, it can cause a huge lag and f... up a server.

I doubt that's a big problem unless there are client-side files in the resource - also, there is no major memory leakage in Multi Theft Auto (or any at all), which means it wouldn't blow up anybody's computer. Thing is, restarting a resource every now and then will lag the server regardless of its size.

Why are people so against setTimer? It really isn't as bad as most people think, unless you create hundreds or thousands of them with onClientRender and it also depends on what you do with the timer.

As for restarting the resource, you can use startResource and stopResource to restart it with a timer, or by other means if you so desire. Just keep in mind that they will require ACL Permission to do this.
