Return to Moria Console Commands

Return to Moria dedicated servers expose a live console for server administration. On AleForge, enter commands in the Console page of the Blacksmith’s Portal while your server is running.

For kicking and blocking players, see How do I kick or block players on my Return to Moria server?.
