    To smoothly transition into new builds I made a server auto-restarter which checks if there are any updates available (happens on map change) and then restarts the dedicated server to update into new version. Awesome right? No more manual restarting and empty server browser on new patch.

    If you do not want your server to auto-restart just set this config:

    sv_restart_on_update = 0

    'happens on mapchange'.
    This means it's only possible with servers that have limited time and pause when there are 0 players online or there are servers on the server that finished a game?

    Yeah, idle servers won't get patched this way.
