well, i have only been learning about linux, unix and shells for a few days.
For my online game to work, i need run a file each 10 seconds. Running that file will update mysql data, causing my online game to "tick". This adds resources and fights battles in game.
I know that i need to use a bakground process, a wget commad.
#!/bin/bash
while true; do
wget my_url/tick.php
sleep 10
done
exit 0
that code runs the process in the ofreground. i want to exit Putty, logiut, and keep that process running for ever.
Can anyone hp me, or advise me how to do this?
Thanks, Mike
