Necesse Admin and Server Commands
Necesse commands can run in the server console or in in-game chat when the player has the required permission. Use /help on the current build before relying on a command, and back up the world before any command that changes or deletes data.
Give the first owner access
Start the server with -owner <name>. The player connecting with that name receives owner permissions:
java -jar Server.jar -nogui -world MyWorld -owner "AdminName"
This option uses a player name, not a Steam64 ID. After connecting, use the permission commands to grant narrower roles to other players.

World and player commands
| Command | Permission | Action |
|---|---|---|
/save | Moderator | Saves server data. |
/settings list | Admin | Lists world settings exposed by the current build. |
/difficulty list | Admin | Lists valid difficulty values. |
/deathpenalty list | Admin | Lists valid death-penalty values. |

Teams and the current command list
Team commands include /createteam, /leaveteam, and /invite <player>. Use /help or /help <command> for the current syntax; do not substitute command names from Minecraft or Terraria.
Cheats and irreversible changes
/allowcheats enables/allows cheats on the world and is documented as not reversible. Commands such as /give, /time, /clearall, and /regen can change world state. Use a backup and warn the group before enabling or running them; the official documentation warns that cheats disable achievements for that world.
Save and stop safely
Use /save before maintenance, then /stop, /exit, or /quit as the owner to save and stop the server. For the file-level backup process, see backup and restore.
Official reference
The complete command permissions and server parameters are maintained in the official Necesse multiplayer documentation. Run /help after an update because commands and values can change.
