What is Run Command?

Run Command (Virtual Server Management) sends ER:LC commands to your private server. You don’t need to be in-game.
The Virtual Server Management window

Click Run Command in the Toolbox to open it.

Running a Command

1

Pick a command

Click a command button, or type the command in Command Input. The leading : is optional.
2

Add arguments

Melonly suggests the next argument in grey, such as player names in your server. Press Tab to accept it.
3

Run it

Click Run command or press Enter.
You can run another command after 6 seconds. Every command except Shutdown needs at least one argument. Commands only work while someone is in your server.
You can also run commands from the Command Palette. Type : followed by the command.

Command Tabs

Commands are grouped into Admin, Mod, and Roleplay tabs. You only see the Admin tab with ER:LC admin or higher.

Command Permissions

Commands not on this list, such as :bring or :view, can’t be run remotely. Every command you run is recorded in your server’s audit logs.
