Minning Penguin Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 I was wondering if there was an argument to put into tekkit that does not prevent my computer from automatically going to sleep. Background: I was able to setup a minecraft server fine under linux in which any user can remotely wake up the computer but the computer will go back to sleep after 2 hours. When I went to make the same setup in windows XP tekkit server prevents the computer from idling so it wont go to sleep. I am using the current version of tekkit and launching it via a shortcut to the jar with arguments specifying the cashe size. I know this is supposed to be a feature but in this case it is a hinderance. The only reason I want to switch to windows is that there are a few games I bought on steam that I want to play while I keep the sever up. Thank you any one that replys
Minning Penguin Posted November 6, 2012 Author Posted November 6, 2012 Is there still no way of doing it? Even on xp or windows 7?
Teraku Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Disable the feature that turns your computer to sleep. Was that so hard?
Omicron Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Unfortunately Teraku, yes it was/is that hard, because you didn't read carefully. He wants his computer to go to sleep, but Tekkit won't let it. (I have no solution either, I'm afraid - aside from a dualboot environment where you have Linux to run your server but can boot into Windows to play games.)
Teraku Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 Oh, does NOT prevent. Kinda a weird thing to say. But I don't think there's a way, since Tekkit keeps using the disk. An option would be to input save-off every time you start, but then it would not save.
