# Admin Guide

This guide covers administrative controls and management of RS-ItemMagnet.

---

# Administrative Access

Administrators with the appropriate permissions can manage ItemMagnets regardless of ownership.

---

# Common Administrative Tasks

## Inspect Machines

View machine settings and configuration.

## Modify Machines

Adjust:

* Radius
* Filters
* Assigned containers
* Operational state

## Remove Machines

Remove invalid, abandoned, or problematic ItemMagnets.

---

# Ownership System

RS-ItemMagnet uses ownership protection.

Normally only the owner may modify a machine.

Administrators can bypass ownership restrictions when necessary.

---

# Troubleshooting Player Issues

Common causes of collection problems:

* Missing target container
* Full container
* Incorrect filter settings
* Items outside collection radius

---

# Best Practices

Use administrative controls sparingly.

Allow players to manage their own automation systems whenever possible.
