Your Windrose game server's dashboard at a glance: configuration, files, console, backups, schedules and the ZapX AI Agent.
10 November 20264 min read1 Views0 helpful
Introduction
You've rented a Windrose game server from us and want to know where to find each feature in ZapX? This guide takes you through your server's product management from start to finish—and shows you how much time the built-in automation and AI assistance can save you in your day-to-day administration.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The overview is your cockpit: server status, IP:port with one-click copying, and live CPU, RAM, disk, and network usage. You can also start, stop, or restart your server from here.
In the Configuration tab, AI automatically scans your server files and turns the relevant settings into easy-to-understand form fields grouped by topic, with explanations. Alternatively, you can edit the configuration file directly in the raw text view.
The ZapX AI Agent is included with every ZapX Pass. You can chat with it to read and analyze your console log, search and edit files, manage backups, view or reset your FTP credentials, and get update suggestions. It asks for your confirmation before making any changes and never takes action on its own.
To use the DDoS Manager, you need either a dedicated IP address or the "DDoS Manager Overview" add-on. If your package doesn't include either, you can add one at any time with an upgrade.

Overview
The Overview is your cockpit: server status, IP:port with one-click copying, and 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'll even see the current player count, map, and ping right in the dashboard, without any external tools.
Tip
If your server crashes unexpectedly, ZapX detects it automatically in the background and updates your overview—you don't need to reload the page manually to see the actual status.
Configuration
Searching through configuration files by hand is a thing of the past: under Configuration, AI automatically scans your server files, identifies the relevant settings, and turns them into easy-to-understand form fields grouped by topic—with an explanation of each parameter. Critical values are specially marked with a "Caution" note so you don't accidentally bring your server to a halt. If you prefer the classic approach, you can open the raw text view of the config file—both options are available in the same view.
After you save, ZapX offers to restart the server so your changes take effect right away.
ZapX AI Agent
With the ZapX Pass, you have the ZapX AI Agent at your side—your personal on-demand server admin. Chat with it to read and analyze your console log, search and edit files, manage backups, view or reset your FTP credentials, and get update suggestions. Before making any changes to your server, it asks for your confirmation—the AI Agent never takes action on its own, so you're always in full control.
Manage content
Files
The file manager under Files works like an FTP program right in your browser. Upload files using drag and drop, edit them online, rename them, or delete them. You'll also find your SFTP credentials for external programs like FileZilla or WinSCP in the same tab, including one-click password rotation if you want 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. For security, you need to re-enter the database name to delete it.
Operations 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, or 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 recommended action.
Backups
We automatically back up your server every day, so you always have a recent backup available 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 contains a complete version snapshot (game version, configuration), so you can return to exactly that state whenever you need to. Restores include a live progress indicator, and the server is only stopped briefly. With ZapX Pass Pro, your backups can even run automatically on a schedule you choose.
Tip
With ZapX Pass Plus, you get 1, with Pro 3, and with Max 5 personal 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: Plus 250 GB, Pro 500 GB, Max 1,000 GB. If needed, you can add more 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 and above), or run your own command. Choose from handy presets such as "Every hour" or "Daily at 04:00" or set up your own schedule using 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 keeps a complete log of everything that happens on your server—from starts and restarts to configuration changes, backups, and every console command. This lets you see exactly what changed and when.
DDoS Manager
The DDoS Manager displays incoming traffic live in a chart 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.
Conclusion
You now know your way around every section of your Windrose game server management in ZapX—from AI-powered configuration to automatic backups that have your back in the background.
