Hey I have 2 questions on server script.
1. Is -nographics necessary for script to start server?
2. I added -logfie "log.txt" in server script but there is no such file in directory. Is it still working?
Thanks for reply.

Log may be located in logs folder (atlist it was on previous update), so try "logs/log.txt"
Not sure about nographics, but I think it might throw errors about missing shaders/textures etc, but needs testing

Not...
Just tested. Nothing different with before. Here is my script.


echo off
:start

cd rustds
RustDedicated.exe -batchmode -nographics -logfile "logs/log.txt" ^
+server.worldsize "1000" ^
+server.hostname "myserver" ^
+server.description "" ^
+server.headerimage "" ^
+server.port "28014" ^
+server.url "" ^
+server.maxplayers "150" ^
+server.identity "my_server_identity" ^
cd ../

goto start

You need to specify, for example, full path to the log file. Or, AFAIK you can do something like "./blah....", Test both

-logfile "D:\Servers\Rust\logs\log.txt"

or

-logfile "/path/to/your/server/logs/log.txt"

or 

-logfile "./logs/log.txt"

or the full path. This was changed with the recent Unity and Rust updates from how it worked before.

Running -nographics should not cause any issues, and is common use with most Unity game servers.

I just realized, I've given a misleading info in my first post - I meant running without -nographics might cause errors in console.
