Summary

This is a server mod I wrote to automatically restart our FTB server every day. Given the nature of FTB, we needed this but I could not find a solution that involved complicated wrappers, rcon commands or control panels. I would like to share it to help other admins who may need it.

I called it “ForgeAutoShutdown” as technically speaking, the mod’s only purpose is to shut down the server at a given time. It is up to a shell script, Windows batch file or service control to bring the server back up, but it is not necessary.

Please feel free to report any bugs or suggest/pull request additions.

Features

• Scheduled hour and minute of shutdown within 24 hours of server uptime (e.g. 07:00 or 13:00)
• Warns all players of scheduled shutdown every minute, five minutes prior
• Configurable warning and kick messages
• Player voting for a manual shutdown without admin intervention
• Watchdog for automatic shutdown if server is hung (“stalled”) or TPS is too low for too long
• Made for Forge 1.7.10, 1.8, and 1.10.2-1.12.2
