7 Days to Die servers have a large list of console commands available to help debug, test, and diagnose server issues, as well as manage various aspects of the server. Ranging from kicking or banning players to spawning items, zombies, events, and more. Utilizing console commands is a great way to quickly test new items or base configurations by spawning resources, as well as help players recover lost items. Console commands are an essential tool for enhancing moderation on a server.
