Windows (CMD):

altv-server.exe

Your server can be broadcasted by getting a token from the alt:V bot in the Discord.

After doing this simply set announce to true in your server.cfg.

If you wish to reconnect to your server after restarting you need to enable debug mode on both your client and your server.

debug: true

In your altv.cfg for your alt:V client put the following: debug: true

This will fully allow you to reconnect to your server.
