hello i have this code for launching minecraft to a server straight away

Code: Select all

       Process.Start(My.Settings.Minecraft_loc, String.Format("{0} {1} {2}", Label4.Text, "12345", My.Settings.server_ip))

but what i now want to know is, is their a way to make it so if a player disconects from that server to attempt single player is their a way to kill the game or just reconect to server and display a message box saying sorry you can not do that

[visualtech]

you need to know the command line argument for that,

suppose the argument is -d for disconnect, the the code will be

Process.Start(My.Settings.Minecraft_loc, "-c")

[muttley1968]

and how would i go about finiding out these command lines

[visualtech]

they might be in the server documentation

[muttley1968]

nope it aint were would it be inside the main jar file its for minecraft so

[visualtech]

what do you mean, there is no documentation?

well, then you have to quit the process:

you can do this:

Dim server As New Process

server = Process.Start("MINECRAFT_SERVER.jar", "-connect")

server.Kill()

[visualtech]

sorry modify the code like this

Dim server as Process
server = Process.Start(My.Settings.Minecraft_loc, String.Format("{0} {1} {2}", Label4.Text, "12345", My.Settings.server_ip) 'The code for connecting

'For Disconnecting:

server.Kill()

[visualtech]

For reconnecting

kill the process with server.Kill() and then re-execute the connection bit i.e. server = Process.Start()

i will try taht but allow me to explain my self better what i want to do is make a mincraft launcher that will launch staight to my server and then make it so if a user pressed the esc button and click the disconect button on that menu the program runing in the background will see this and restart the game back to the server and show a message box saying you cant do this

[visualtech]

then you have to find each thread on which the JAR relies, then scan them for activity, if there is a disconnection activity then restart the server. that can get a little complicated if you are a amateur programmer.
