Server Commands not working?

[Thijsku]

Hey there!

It seems like the server commands aren't working for me. I'm trying the commands which are provided in this blogpost, but it doesn't seem to work. Perhaps I'm doing something awfully wrong, in that case I apologise for being a noob, haha.

I made myself an OP of the server (writing his Gamejolt username in "ops.dat") After that, I type some commands like "/give 18 1", but nothing happens.. am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

That might be a script command (@) not a server command. If that were the case, then server owners could easily cheat for items.

Upon further examination, it turns out that particular blog post was for Pokémon 3D Indev version 0.10a, which is am extremely old version (0.45.1 is current).

This further supports my theory that, the commands listed in the blog post were for Co-Op use. With Co-Op being dead and all, I can assume that those particular commands died with it (if not altered considerably for assimilation to the new server system).

Voting for Not a Bug.

I own a server for a couple of friends, but because of a bug my friend lost all his items. (also important items like HM's) So I need to cheat these items in order to continue our journey.

It's a very old blog indeed, so it could be the case that the server commands are a) not working anymore or b) are edited out. I hope a developer can clarify on this!

If you are playing offline, you can use Script Commands.
For those to work, you need to edit your player.dat file to enable SandBoxMode.
Then, type @help(commands) in the chat.
For the particular item giving command, type @help(item.give) into the chat to get more information about the command.

Server commands are not affecting the players directly. Most of the server commands are list management (blacklist, whitelist, mutelist, oplist) and player list (kick). You can enter those in the chat by using /commandname
You can enter Script Commands by starting the line with "@" and then typing the command (as in the help command)
