The Game Monitor is your main control center for managing your game server. From here you can:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Server Status:&lt;/strong&gt; View real-time information about your server including player count, map, and server status
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Start/Stop/Restart:&lt;/strong&gt; Control your server's power state with dedicated buttons
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Update Server:&lt;/strong&gt; Keep your game server files up to date with automatic or manual updates
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;View Logs:&lt;/strong&gt; Monitor server logs to troubleshoot issues or track player activity

The Scheduler is a cron-like system that allows you to automate server tasks at specific times or intervals.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;What is Cron?&lt;/strong&gt; Cron is a time-based job scheduler used in Unix-like systems (Linux). The panel's Scheduler brings this functionality to game server management.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Common uses:&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;br&gt;• Automatic server restarts (daily, weekly, etc.)
&lt;br&gt;• Scheduled server updates
&lt;br&gt;• Backup creation at regular intervals
&lt;br&gt;• Sending automated messages to players
&lt;br&gt;• Running custom scripts or commands

The Scheduler uses cron syntax, which may be unfamiliar to Windows users. Here's a simple guide:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Cron Format:&lt;/strong&gt; * * * * * (5 fields separated by spaces)
&lt;br&gt;Position 1: Minute (0-59)
&lt;br&gt;Position 2: Hour (0-23, where 0 = midnight)
&lt;br&gt;Position 3: Day of month (1-31)
&lt;br&gt;Position 4: Month (1-12)
&lt;br&gt;Position 5: Day of week (0-7, where 0 and 7 = Sunday)
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Examples:&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;0 6 * * *&lt;/code&gt; - Every day at 6:00 AM
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;0 0 * * 0&lt;/code&gt; - Every Sunday at midnight
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;*/30 * * * *&lt;/code&gt; - Every 30 minutes
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;0 4 * * 1&lt;/code&gt; - Every Monday at 4:00 AM
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Special characters:&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;*&lt;/code&gt; means "every" (every minute, hour, etc.)
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;*/X&lt;/code&gt; means "every X units" (*/15 = every 15 minutes)
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;X,Y&lt;/code&gt; means "at X and Y" (1,15 = 1st and 15th)
&lt;br&gt;• &lt;code&gt;X-Y&lt;/code&gt; means "from X to Y" (9-17 = 9 AM to 5 PM)
<br /><br />
<strong>Cron Format:</strong> * * * * * (5 fields separated by spaces)
<br />Position 1: Minute (0-59)
<br />Position 2: Hour (0-23, where 0 = midnight)

<br />Position 4: Month (1-12)
<br />Position 5: Day of week (0-7, where 0 and 7 = Sunday)

<strong>Examples:</strong>
<br />• <code>0 6 * * *</code> - Every day at 6:00 AM
