[Fab] Smartest way to do /updates

[Caesar1928]

Alright so this command is quite useful considering it uses a txt file to grab the text and you can update the list without restarting the server!
First locate AdminCommands.cs and add this command:

    internal class UpdatesCmd : Command
    {
        public UpdatesCmd()
            : base("updates", 0)
        {
        }

        protected override bool Process(Player player, RealmTime time, string[] args)
        {
            string[] txt = System(dot)IO.File.ReadAllLines("updates.txt");
            string text = string.Join(", ", txt);
            player.SendInfo(text);
            return true;
        }
    }

For some reason mpgh is being weird so make sure you replace (dot) with a period!!!
Now go into your server files and locate bin/debug and add a new txt file named updates
Follow this format to add new things:

Update1
Update2
Update3
Etc...

It should work flawlessly! If you have any issues let me know I'll be happy to help (:

This looks nice, but its actual effectiveness is cut short by the fact that most if not all server updates require a restart to begin with.

If servers had a more modular script-loading structure I could see a lot of updates being made with zero-downtime.

Yeah that's true but this was kind of meant to open more opportunities to people because txt files can be quite useful in things like prices...
