Console commands

Console commands allow for the toggling, configuration, or modification of various gameplay settings. The commands can either be sent through the in-game chat during runtime, entered via the server console during runtime, or set in a server's Commands.dat configuration file while the server is not running. Some commands require that the server has enabled cheats.
Players that have been granted administrator privileges can use console commands through the in-game chat. On a single-player world, the player always has administrator privileges. When typing a command through the in-game chat, they must be prefixed with either an at sign @ or a forward slash /. Commands with multiple parameters require that each parameter is separated with a forward slash /, unless the parameter is omitted entirely. Commands are not case-sensitive.
