Assigning LAN Server Operators and Controlling World Saves

EasyLAN brings standard dedicated server controls to your local PC host, including operator privileges and manual world-saving commands.

Managing Operator Privileges

By default, only the host has administrative control over a LAN session. You can grant friends operator permissions directly through in-game commands:

1. Open the in-game chat interface while your LAN server is running.

2. Type /op <player> to give that user operator privileges, allowing them to use supported host commands.

3. If you need to demote an operator back to a regular player, type /deop <player>.

Controlling World Saves

To prevent data loss or manage write operations during maintenance, use the supported save commands:

1. Run /save-all to immediately write all current world changes and chunk data to disk.

2. Run /save-off to temporarily disable automatic world saves.

3. Run /save-on to re-enable automatic background saving when you are ready.
