Hi,
I am planning on running multiple servers with different settings (i.e. normal, hard and takeover) on one installation. So far, it seems like both methods would work:
1. Start the executable with different INI paths
2. Start the executable with different parameters for settings (i.e. difficulty and ports)
1 has the disadvantage of managing multiple, possibly almost identical configurations, 2 seems to have the disadvantage of multiple executables writing to the same configuration file (reading doesn't look like a problem).
Is it possible to have several server processes with the same sever name that differ by port?
Additionally, I have several workshop maps so it may seem like several processes would try to download the same map with maybe weird results.
Any advice?
