Whether you're running a Hytale server or building custom maps, mastering PC commands is essential. These commands give you complete control over your server: manage players, modify the world, create complex structures, and much more.
In this comprehensive guide, we've compiled all available Hytale commands, organized by category with real-world usage examples.
1. Opening the command console
Before using commands, you need to access the console:
On your Hytale server:
- Press Enter to open the chat
- Type your command starting with / (slash)
- Press Enter to execute
From the server console:
- Access your server's admin panel
- Open the "Console" tab
- Type commands directly (without the /)
Tip: All commands start with / when used in-game. From the server console, the / is optional.
2. Essential server commands
These commands control your server's core functions.
Warning: Always use /stop to shut down your server instead of forcing it. This prevents data corruption.
3. Player management commands
Manage permissions, moderation, and player inventories.
/op <player>Grants administrator rights/deop <player>Removes administrator rights/kick <player>Kicks a player/ban <player>Bans a player/unban <player>Unbans a player/give <player> <item>Gives an item/heal <player>Heals a player/tp <player> <dest>Teleports a playerUse Case: For a server event, use /tp @a 500 70 -300 to teleport all players (@a) to the same location simultaneously.
4. World modification commands
Control time, weather, and game rules.

6. Best practices and tips
Target Selectors

@aAll players@eAll entities@pNearest player@rRandom playerKeyboard Shortcuts

7. Common mistakes to avoid
Forgetting the slash /
In-game commands require the / prefix
✓ Solution: Always type / before commands
Wrong coordinates
The order must be x y z
✓ Solution: Check exact coordinates with F3
No backup
Risk of data corruption
✓ Solution: Use /backup before major changes
Using /kill @e
Kills ALL entities (players, items, mobs)
✓ Solution: Specify type: /kill @e[type=zombie]
