Server console

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.

Command	Description
save	Saves the world to disk.
stop	Saves the world to disk (if autosave is enabled) and stops the AAGRINDER server.
kill	Immediately stops the AAGRINDER server without saving.
players	Displays a list of online players.
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.
chat	Takes an unlimited number of arguments. A chat message is then sent to all clients. In chat, the message sender appears as [SERVER].
admin	Reloads the list of admins from the files admins.txt.
passwd	Takes 2 arguments: player name and new password. If password is "", the password is removed from the account.
forcereload	As of 30th June 2020, this no longer reloads clients. Instead, it displays a message to all users, asking them to reload.
log	Saves all submitted client logs and server logs to disk. Only available if debug_server is set to true in server settings.
clearlog	Deletes the recorded server event debuglog.

It is currently not possible to close the server console without also stopping the server. If you want to disconnect from the console without losing the session, I recommend using a terminal multiplexer such as Screen or tmux.
