Allanballan Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 So I have a server that I want to run the New Years Event on. I have activated the event by setting the commandline parameter -NewYearEvent. I then want to set the timestamps to January 1st 14.00 GMT and January 2 14.00 GMT. As I understand these parameter shall also be in the servers commandline like this: ?NewYear1UTC=1609509600 ?NewYear1UTC=1609596000 So to my questions: 1. When I put these setting in the commandline shall the to begin with a - ? Like this: -?NewYear1UTC=1609509600 2. When I add parameters to my commandline shall there be a space between the different parameters I have there? Example: -NoTransferFromFiltering -NewYearEvent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allanballan Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 Got an answer from my server host HostHavoc. You can add the custom timestamps after the map. For instance TheIsland?NewYear1UTC=1609477200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sligmma Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Hey Allanballan, can you paste in the full command line? I've got my -ActiveEvent=NewYearEvent and also my ?NewYear1UTCepochtime listed with the rest of the server args, but it still isnt working. Thanks! Full command line I have: (ip and ports omitted for security) C:\Ark\Servers\Ragnarok1\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ShooterGameServer.exe Ragnarok?listen?MultiHome=IPADDRESS?Port=PORT?QueryPort=QPORT?MaxPlayers=30?AltSaveDirectoryName=RagnarokCluster?AllowCrateSpawnsOnTopOfStructures=True?NewYear1UTC=1609809300 -ActiveEvent=-NewYearEvent -ForceAllowCaveFlyers -EnableIdlePlayerKick -clusterid=XXX -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark" -NoBattlEye -exclusivejoin -nosteamclient -game -server -log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkfields Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 You've mixed the command line args for the active event and the new year event 😞 C:\Ark\Servers\Ragnarok1\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ShooterGameServer.exe Ragnarok?listen?MultiHome=IPADDRESS?Port=PORT?QueryPort=QPORT?MaxPlayers=30?AltSaveDirectoryName=RagnarokCluster?AllowCrateSpawnsOnTopOfStructures=True?NewYear1UTC=1609809300 -ActiveEvent=WinterWonderland -NewYearEvent -ForceAllowCaveFlyers -EnableIdlePlayerKick -clusterid=XXX -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark" -NoBattlEye -exclusivejoin -nosteamclient -game -server -log Your timestamp equates to the 5th Jan at 1:15 am (UTC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official post wasn't too clear for me, so that makes sense now. Thanks a ton! And yes, i used the epoch timer to set that as my test time to see if it'd work. I'll be sure to change that when i run it for my dedicated server. lastly, adding the second event should just follow with its own: ?Newyear2UTC=xxx right after the first one.
