How to Set Up Automatic Restarts for Your Unturned Server

Scheduled restarts keep your server running smoothly by clearing memory and applying updates on a set timetable. You configure them from the Scheduled Tasks section of the game control panel.

Create a scheduled restart

1. Log in to the Game Control Panel and navigate to your server.
2. Click the Scheduled Tasks icon on the left-hand side.
3. Click New at the top of the section, choose Scheduled Start/Stop/Restart, then click New directly below that section.
4. Give the task a descriptive name so you can identify it quickly. Make sure the Enabled box is checked.
5. For the type, choose Daily to restart at the same time each day.
6. Set the start date and time. This is the time the task runs every day.
7. Click Save.

Repeat every few hours

To restart multiple times per day (for example, every 6 hours), open the Advance Options section and enable Repeat Task. Set the repeat interval as needed.

Troubleshooting

• Task not firing at the expected time: the panel uses its own time zone. Check the panel's time zone setting and adjust your scheduled time accordingly.
• Server still running players when it restarts: use the Wait until server is empty option in Advance Options to delay the restart until the server is empty.
