Stationeers Dedicated-Server Admin Commands
Stationeers exposes an in-game/server console rather than a universal command list that stays correct forever. Use the running build’s help output and treat save commands as lifecycle operations.
Safe command pattern
| Command or action | Use |
|---|---|
help / help list | Discover commands supported by the current build. |
save "My saved game" | Create or overwrite a named save from the runtime console. |
| Server authentication secret | Protect admin/server actions; never publish it in a guide or chat. |
Before maintenance
- Tell players the station will pause.
- Run a save from the server console.
- Wait for the save operation to finish.
- Stop the process through the normal lifecycle action.
- Back up before changing mods or settings.
Do not paste a command list from an old pre-terrain guide into a current server. The dedicated-server flags and available commands changed across major updates.
See the save guide and Stationeers hosting for controlled admin access.
