Scheduled Tasks, Backups & Discord Integration

Scheduled tasks

Open the Schedules tab on any game server to automate routine commands.

Common schedules

  • Daily restart at 04:00 — clears memory leaks, resets entity caches.
  • Hourly world save — for games where saves do not happen automatically.
  • Pre-restart announcementssay Restart in 5 minutes, say Restart in 1 minute.
  • Weekly mod / plugin update — pull the latest version on Sunday morning.

Schedule actions

Each schedule can chain multiple steps:

  1. Send a console command (save-all, broadcast ...).
  2. Power action (start, stop, restart, kill).
  3. Trigger a backup.

Backups

The Backups tab snapshots the server’s data volume. With the Backup & Recovery add-on these are uploaded to Backblaze B2 for off-site safety. Restoring a backup overwrites the current files; you cannot undo a restore, so download anything you want to keep first.

Discord integration

On the Discord tab, paste a webhook URL from your Discord server. The panel posts events:

  • Server start / stop / crash
  • Backup completion
  • Schedule failures
  • Player join / leave (for supported games)

Creating a webhook in Discord

  1. Open Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks.
  2. Click New Webhook, choose a channel, copy the URL.
  3. Paste it into the panel and click Save.
  4. Use Send test to verify the channel receives a message.
