Admin Guide

The Admin Menu provides server operators with administrative controls and diagnostic information for RS-MobStand.

This menu is intended for server staff and administrators.


Accessing the Admin Menu

The Admin button appears within the Main Menu for authorized users.

Open:

Main Menu
    ↓
Admin

to access administrative functions.


Administrative Features

Depending on your server configuration and plugin version, the Admin Menu may contain various management and diagnostic tools.


Reload Configuration

The Reload Configuration option allows administrators to reload the plugin configuration without restarting the server.

This is useful when:

  • Adjusting plugin settings
  • Testing configuration changes
  • Applying updates to configuration files

When To Use Reload

After editing:

config.yml

you can reload the plugin to apply changes immediately.


Plugin Version Information

The Admin Menu displays plugin version information.

Information may include:

  • Installed Version
  • Latest Available Version
  • Update Status

Possible status values:

Up To Date

The installed version matches the latest available version.

Update Available

A newer version is available.

Unable To Check

The plugin could not reach the update source.

This may occur when:

  • Internet access is unavailable
  • The update source is inaccessible
  • The repository is private

Ownership Bypass

Administrators may bypass normal ownership restrictions.

This allows staff to:

  • Inspect Mob Stands
  • Modify configurations
  • Troubleshoot player issues

without needing ownership of the Mob Stand.


Troubleshooting Player Issues

When assisting players:

Verify Ownership

Ensure the player owns the Mob Stand or has appropriate permissions.

Verify Filters

Incorrect filter settings are a common cause of unexpected behavior.

Verify Radius

Confirm the Mob Stand is scanning the intended area.

Verify Pause Status

A paused Mob Stand will not process mobs.


Best Practices

Reload Sparingly

Frequent reloads are generally unnecessary.

Test Configuration Changes

Verify changes on a test stand before making server-wide adjustments.

Keep Backups

Maintain backups of configuration files before making major changes.

Monitor Updates

Review plugin updates periodically for bug fixes and new features.


Security

Administrative access should only be granted to trusted staff members.

Administrative permissions may allow:

  • Bypassing ownership protection
  • Accessing administrative controls
  • Modifying player Mob Stands
