Command snippets and keyboard shortcuts
Command snippets
Tired of typing the same long console command? Save it as a snippet and insert it with a couple of keystrokes.
Creating a snippet
- Go to Account → Command Snippets and click Create.
- Give it a short Name, e.g.
announce-restart. - Type the Command, e.g.
/announce Server restarting in 5 minutes! - Eggs: pick which games it's for. Leave it empty to use it on every server.
- Click Create.
Using a snippet
On any server's Console, type ! followed by part of the name, e.g.
!ann. Pick the snippet from the list and the command is filled in. Check it,
then press Enter to send.
