While running an AAGRINDER server, the admin has access to the server console. The console displays various kinds of data about activity on the server. Additionally, the console accepts input on stdin. This allows the admin to type commands in the server console. The following table describes all these commands. Please note that the Enter key needs to be pressed after each typed command.

Please note that these commands are exclusive to the server console, it is not possible to run them from within the game. For a list of in-game commands, see command list.

stop Saves the world to disk (if autosave is enabled) and stops the AAGRINDER server.

kick Takes 1 argument, the name of the player who will be kicked. Useful if you are stuck online server-side. No quotes required around argument.
