Auto Mod Updater
You can now install and update mods automatically using ServerThrall. When a mod needs to update, ServerThrall will send the proper warning messages to your Discord and RCON letting users know that a restart is happening, and what mods will be updating.

Questions?
- Q> How do I get a workshops id?
- A> Go to Conan Exiles workshop at https://steamcommunity.com/app/440900/workshop and look for an item you want to install. Once you click on that item, look at the URL and you will find the workshop item id. As an example, for this item https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1504620953 you can see the id is 1504620953. Just paste that into your
workshop_ids
in ServerThrall.config
- Q> Can I install some mods manually that ServerThrall does not update automatically?
- A> Yes, when ServerThrall updates mods, it looks at all the mods you have installed and will leave mods alone that are not managed by ServerThrall. This also means you need to manually clean up and delete mods yourself if you remove it from
workshop_ids
in ServerThrall.config.
- Q> How do I control the order that mods get loaded by Conan Exiles?
- A> ServerThrall will automatically sort your mods in the modlist based on the order in which they show up in
workshop_ids
in ServerThrall.config. If you have any mods that are manually installed and not updated by ServerThrall, they will be sorted to the top of the list in the order that they appeared in the modlist.
- Q> How does ServerThrall detect mods that need updating?
- A> ServerThrall detects mods that need updating in 3 ways. It downloads newer versions through steamcmd and checks the mods manifest to see when the last time a new version was uploaded. It also checks to see if a pakfile has gone missing inside the mods folder in your server. This means if you delete pakfiles, Serverthrall will detect it and restart your server so it can repair the missing pakfile. The last way is if your modlist is missing entries. A restart will be scheduled to repair your modlist file and write the mods ServerThrall updates into the modlist again.
