Hi,

Is it possible to somehow determine which OS a server is
running on, and thereby modify the gamefiles? I am thinking
about paths and such, which may depend on the OS.
Something like <gc:if><gc:os> == "posix"<gc:then> or
similar? It is of course possible to use templates to specify
for each individual server, but it would be very nice to have
a way of automatically selecting settings based on OS.

Cheers!

Can possibly make it a variable for either Windows or Linux, but not specific OS details at this time.

Certainly! I see no need to separate various Linux-distros,
for example. Separating win from lin is enough for me

Thanks

Added a %server:os% variable which will return win32 or linux depending on the host OS.

Timing couldn't be more perfect, Andrew. Thanks a bundle!

Also documented our 'magic' variables, which will be helpful for reference: http://doc.gamecreate.com/SpecialProperties
