Question and maybe small feature

I would like to restart my server every 2-3 hours
How bad would it be, if a backup is currently running and the server is just stopping at this moment?

Not sure if this feature fits into AdvancedBackups but it could be helpful to have optional side feature to control automatic restarts to respect the backup cycle. What do you think? Thanks ๐Ÿ˜Š
(It differs from this point from the upcoming feature to restart the server after an finished update. Since I would like to just restart the server more often and don't backup it all 2-3 hours based on that.)

If a backup is ongoing and the server stops, the backup will continue and the server will finish restarting after the backup finishes.
I'm not aware of any auto-restart mods that break this in any capacity.

What sort of control scheme would you want that isn't just #94?

That's good to know, then theres not really something to worry about, thanks ๐Ÿ˜„
I will just use a good restart mod then. Otherwise, if it's not too much work, integrate just a simply optional restart mechanic.
Could be fitting good into this backup mod. If not, you can close this ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'll close for now then, possibly with a post-4.0 revisit.
