Game server administrators are required to know console commands. This is necessary in order to maintain the server, maintain progress, control the behavior of players. Most often, the administrator's position is attributed to the host - server holders. A newcomer to this system probably does not know how to write commands in a terrarium. Then this article will help you write and understand the commands defined through the console.
Console application
The console is not built into the game and cannot be called up using the key. But the developers provided this problem and placed the console in the root folder with the game. The file is called TerrariaServer.exe and works in parallel with the game. Server commands are written through this application, which will be discussed below.
Custom Commands for Terraria
There are teams that are needed for ordinary players. Usually they are informative:
- help - shows a set of available commands;
- rules - displays general server rules;
- userinfo - displays information about the player;
- playing - displays the number of players on the server.
Admin team
Suppose the host has already created the world, set the port and password. The server owner must control the gameplay to prevent the game from wiping.
