Windrose servers can enable RCON via the popular Windrose+ modding framework or by installing a mod available from the Starbase panel. Server owners can choose to combine these two methods to expand the available functions or use only one. The panel-side mod requires no external mods, making it the ideal option for players looking to keep servers light. RCON commands also do not control the vanilla server options.
