Managing bans on your Path of Titans server

You can ban and unban players on the Access tab of the dashboard, by editing the bans.txt file yourself, or with chat commands in game. Bans use the player's Alderon Games ID (AGID). See Find your Alderon Games ID.

Ban a player in the dashboard​

  1. Open the Fragnet dashboard, go to My servers and select your Path of Titans server.

  2. Select the Access tab, then Bans. If you don't see the Access tab, look under More.

  3. Enter the player's Alderon ID. You can ban one player at a time.

  4. Choose the Length: Permanent, or 1, 3, 7 or 30 days.

  5. Optionally, fill in:

    • Message to the player: shown when they try to join.
    • Note for admins: only admins see it.

    Messages can't contain a colon (:) or line breaks, and are up to 200 characters.

  6. Select Ban player.

You don't need to restart the server. It reads the ban list again every minute, so bans and unbans take effect within a minute.

The list shows each ban with its length: Permanent, "Until" and the end date, or Ended once a temporary ban has run out.

Unban a player​

On Access > Bans, select the bin icon next to the player's ID. The unban takes effect within a minute.

Edit bans.txt yourself​

The dashboard saves bans in PathOfTitans/Saved/bans.txt. You can also edit this file on the Files tab (see Edit a file), for example to set a ban that ends on a specific date. Select Save file when you're done.

Add each ban on a new line in this format:

AGID:UnixTimestamp:AdminReason:UserReason

VariableExampleDescription
AGID123-443-512The Alderon Games ID of the player.
UnixTimestamp1644464516For a temporary ban, the Unix timestamp of the date the player is unbanned. You can generate one at https://www.epochconverter.com/. For a permanent ban, use 0.
AdminReasonAdmin message here!An internal note that only admins see. Can be left blank. You can't use a colon : in it, or your bans break.
UserReasonBanned for spamming the chat.The message the player sees when they try to join. Make it clear so they understand why they were banned. You can't use a colon : in it, or your bans break.

You need to be an admin, or have a role with the ban permission. See Adding admins.

Log into your server and type in chat: /ban <playername> <reason>. For example: /ban Jiggy Breaking rule 12

You can leave the reason blank.

Unban a player​

/unban PlayerID unbans the player.
