Hi,
with the newest script the l4d1-server wont be shut down (functions are updated). The output shows:

xxx@xxx:~/l4d_TZF-Apoc$ ./l4dserver stop
[  OK  ] Stopping tzfl4d: Graceful: rcon quit: 2: OK

Also the ./details command shows its offline. But the server stays online and the process isnt killed.

Distro: Ubuntu 15.10 x64

Thx for info.
@dgibbs64 Any clue ? Didn't check rcon quit yet. Are those real rcon commands, or commands sent into the console ?

EDIT : Those are commands sent into the console. I'm not sure if we can call this rcon.

The stop function would need to be simplified btw.
Incriminated function is here, but nothing seems wrong with it after a quick look :

@faflama This can happen if you got something written into the game console. Say you got
oh i wanted to type a command but i didn't press enter , then when LGSM will input "quit", it's gonna send this to the server :
oh i wanted to type a command but i didn't press enterquit
And it will answer with something like
unknown command "oh"

Could you please try to go into the console and manually input quit and see what happens ?
That way we'd have a clue if it's a script issue or a L4D issue.

I tried and got the following:

quit in console: Server shuts down (script recognizes the shutdown)
quit over rcon: Server shuts down (script stil "thinks" its online)

EDIT: Going though the logs I found one time, where the "quit" had additional characters around it. But atm the "stop" is working, whoever knows why. I will test tomorrow again.
