Remember to replace the folder directory, <AdminPassword>, <RCONPort> to your own.
Also, you need to use crontab to schedule the following scripts if necessary.
I'm using supervisor to restart the service, the example config is as:

fi- Exiting the guild will cause all players who was not logged-in at the moment to corrupt their save files! (Joining another guild will exit the old one as well.) Next time they log in they'll stuck at the loading spinning black screen. You can either clean the save files of those who got corrupted or restore a backup.

I ended up using linuxGSM and a combo of these scripts, and that is working very nicely.
https://linuxgsm.com/servers/pwserver/
I followed that, and in the home folder of /home/pwserver I put a few of my custom scripts, based on these.
and assigned crontab to them as well, in linuxgsm they mention whats recommended, and when your in user pwserver just type crontab -e to add more commands.
I added restart every 6 hours and a save command every 15 minutes (since we had some issues with roll backs before moving to linuxgsm)

Save script
RCON is just the ARRCON executable in my case sitting in /home/pwserver
my crontab -e looks like
monitor is responsible for checking if server is running and restarting it if nessicary, update checks for steam updates and will stop and update server if its avaliable, I just wanted regular restarts that are graceful since linuxgsm wasn't offering that.
