Overview
The Overview is your control center: check your server status, copy the IP:port with one click, and monitor live CPU, RAM, disk, and network usage. Each resource tile has a direct "Upgrade" button in case you need more resources. If your game supports live queries, you can also see the current player count, map, and ping right on the dashboard—no external tools needed.
Tip
If your server crashes unexpectedly, ZAPX detects it automatically in the background and updates your overview for you. You don't need to reload the page manually to see the actual status.
Configuration
Manually searching through configuration files is a thing of the past: under Configuration, AI automatically scans your server files, identifies the relevant settings, and converts them into clear, topic-based form fields—with an explanation of each parameter. Critical values are specially marked with a "Caution" note, so you don't accidentally bring your server down. If you prefer the classic approach, you can open the raw text view of the config file instead. Both options are available in the same view.
After you save, ZAPX offers to restart the server right away so your changes take effect immediately.
ZapX AI Agent
With the ZapX Pass, you have the ZapX AI Agent at your side—your personal on-demand server admin. In chat, it can read and analyze your console log, search and edit files, manage backups, show or reset your FTP credentials, and suggest updates. Any action that changes something on your server is presented to you for confirmation first. The AI Agent never takes action on its own, so you always stay in full control.
Manage Content
Files
The file manager under Files works like an FTP program right in your browser: upload files with drag and drop, edit them online, rename them, or delete them. You can also find your SFTP credentials for external programs like FileZilla or WinSCP in the same tab, including a one-click password rotation option if you need to change them.
Databases
Under Databases, you can create up to 5 MariaDB databases per server, view credentials at a glance, open them directly in phpMyAdmin, or export the structure with one click. You can mark a database as primary. To delete one, you'll need to re-enter its name for security.
Operation and Maintenance
Console
The Console shows your server's live output in a real terminal. Here's what makes it special: ZAPX automatically generates an AI-powered command palette tailored to your game, organized into categories such as administration, gameplay, and chat—with autocomplete as you type. If your server starts struggling due to low memory, the console detects it automatically and displays a clear warning with a suggested action.
Backups
We automatically back up your server every day, so you'll always have a recent backup without having to remember to create one yourself. With the ZapX Pass, you also get full control under Backups: create, restore, and download backups with one click. Each backup includes a complete version snapshot (game version, configuration), so you can return to that exact state whenever you need to. Restores include a live progress indicator, and the server is stopped only briefly. With ZapX Pass Pro, your backups can even run automatically on your own schedule.
Tip
With ZapX Pass Plus, you get 1, with Pro 3, and with Max 5 custom backup slots per server. See all the benefits on the ZapX Pass page. There’s also an account-wide storage limit for all backups of your services combined, daily backups included: 250 GB for Plus, 500 GB for Pro, and 1,000 GB for Max. If needed, you can purchase additional backup storage on the ZapX Pass page.
Schedules
Under Schedules, you can automate recurring tasks: start, stop, or restart the server, create a backup (with ZapX Pass Pro or higher), or run a custom command. Choose a handy preset such as "Every hour" or "Daily at 04:00," or set up your own schedule with a custom cron expression.
Statistics
Under Statistics, you can keep an eye on your server's resource usage. Choose a time range from 1 hour to 30 days and view CPU, RAM, disk, network traffic, and your player count in relation to your purchased slots.
Activity
Activity provides a complete log of what's happened on your server—from starts and restarts to configuration changes, backups, and every console command. You can always see when something was changed and what it was.
DDoS Manager
The DDoS Manager displays incoming traffic live in a graph and lists past attacks with their time, duration, and peak bandwidth. ZAPX automatically learns which ports and services belong to your server and filters traffic accordingly. If you have a dedicated IP address, you can also customize the protection settings.
Conclusion
You now know your way around every area of your Abiotic Factor game server management in ZAPX—from AI-assisted configuration to automatic backups that have your back in the background.
