Unturned server commands come in two kinds. Startup commands such as Owner, Cheats, Map and PvE go in Commands.dat, one per line, and are read when the server starts. Runtime commands such as save, kick, ban and admin are typed in the Game Panel console, or in chat by an admin with /. On FREAKHOSTING servers RocketMod adds its own commands, such as /v, /i and /tp. Parameters are separated with / in game commands, for example ban Nelson/Cheating/86400. Commands are not case-sensitive. Type help in the console for the full list, or help <command> for one command.

Startup commands (Commands.dat)

Add these to Servers/PterodactylUnturned/Server/Commands.dat while the server is stopped. Open it from Game settings > Commands.dat: open the raw file. Several of them are also fields in Game settings. Don’t add Port, Bind, GSLT, Name or Password to Commands.dat. The panel already sets them from Startup each time the server starts.

Runtime commands (console or chat)

Cheat commands

These only work when Cheats is in Commands.dat:

RocketMod commands

RocketMod is installed on our servers. Its commands use spaces, not /, between parameters and don’t need Cheats. Admins can use them all; other players need the permission in a RocketMod group.

Frequently asked questions

Why do my commands not work in chat?

You need to be an admin, and on our servers commands must start with /. RocketMod ignores @. See how to become admin.

Why does Owner or Cheats do nothing when I type it in the console?

They are startup commands. The server rejects them while it is running. Put them in Commands.dat and restart.

Does the server save automatically?

Yes. RocketMod saves the world every 1800 seconds (30 minutes), as the console shows at start. Type save before you stop the server to keep the last few minutes.
