Lua Command - Get game version

[DocHoss333]

I'm using RCON to programmatically get commands into the game. Working splendidly so far. I stumbled across a minor issue and don't know Lua well enough to solve it. If I want to get the output of

Code: Select all

/version

or some other slash command sent to the RCON output, how can I do that? What I'd like is something similar to:

Code: Select all

rcon.print(/version)

but that doesn't work, obviously.

Code: Select all

rcon.print(script.active_mods["base"])
