Directly writable console in the game server panel

Currently, many game servers in the ZAP-Hosting panel only allow you to read the live console, but not enter commands directly. Especially for games like Rust, you need additional tools like RCON, WebRCON, or programs like RustAdmin. This is unnecessarily cumbersome for simple admin tasks. For many commands, it would be much more practical to write and send commands directly in the web interface instead of relying on external tools. My suggestion would therefore be a real interactive console directly in the game server panel, provided the respective game or server supports it. This would greatly simplify management, especially for quick commands, minor changes, or spontaneous checks directly through the panel. Advantages: faster server management no additional external tool needed more user-friendly for admins more modern and practical directly in the panel

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. We are currently moving games over to Docker containers, which would directly provide support for this kind of functionality. At the moment, the limitation is that I would need to involve our game integration expert to confirm whether this is something we can implement in a way that allows better console integration in the panel.

The ZapX game server console is fully interactive: you can type and send commands right in the panel, with command history and suggestions. Marking this as completed.
