By the way, (this is for anyone, who may encounter this), if you see an error like this when running that script :
D:\eqemuTest>perl eqemu_server.pl
[Update] No script update necessary...
invalid character encountered while parsing JSON string, at character offset 182
4 (before "\x{1}BOX TEST ...") at eqemu_server.pl line 1312


That error was caused, because of "special characters" I had in the server long name in the eqemu_config.json file.

EDIT: Guess I should add something. Considering that script is auto-run everytime you start your server, (checking for updates), I never saw that error in the world console window while running server. I didn't see it until I manually ran the script from cmd prompt. (script halted). So I am assuming everytime one starts their server up with special characters in the name, it's not really checking for updates, but the server still starts and runs.
