aca20031 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Hey Guys, I have an odd question. I want to run the server from UDK.com (not UDK.exe). If you want to know why, see my footnote at the end. For now, here's the problem: When I run UDK.com the same as I do the .exe, everything seems to work fine. Until I close it. Once I close the .com (ctrl+c), it closes EVERY single instance of the game, INCLUDING .exes on the server. Meaning if I have run udk.exe 3 times, then run a .com and close it, it closes all of my exe-run processes. I have one simple question: WTF? And is there any command line argument or something to prevent this? Why I want to do this: I want to redirect stdout and stderr so I can read them from a parent process I'm working on. I can't do this if I run UDK.exe for some reason, presumably because of how it tries to create a child. If I use .com it works PERFECTLY, it's excellent. But then I go to close it and it ruins everything Quote
aca20031 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 On further reflection it doesnt look like the .com works that great..its only a partial load. So an amended question would be how to make it work well, or how to redirect the udk.exe streams correctly... Quote
derekgrant Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Hi aca20031, Are you trying to create/host your own server? Quote
aca20031 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 Hi aca20031,Are you trying to create/host your own server? Uhh Yeah...though I can do that just fine by running the UDK.exe the standard way, from a batch file, etc. This is a more technical question about UDK Quote
derekgrant Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I moved your post to the Server section, hopefully someone can help you here. Quote
