Commands

Every command MiniGM can send

MiniGM is client-only. It has no privileges of its own — it types commands into chat and the server decides. This page exists so you can audit exactly what it is capable of saying on your behalf before you trust it on a realm.

Two channels are used:

• GM commands (.something) go to SAY. They are visible to anyone standing near you.
• Playerbot commands (no leading dot) go to PARTY, RAID or WHISPER. They are ordinary chat that mod-playerbots parses.

Everything is queued at one message per 0.4 seconds. The 3.3.5a client silently drops multiple SendChatMessage calls made in the same frame.

GM commands

gmlevel columns are the AzerothCore defaults; the authority on your realm is the world DB command table, and in game .commands and .help <command>.

Command	Sent by	Acts on	gmlevel	Risk
.go xyz <x> <y> <z> <map>	Tele — any of the four	you only	2	low
.gm fly on / off	Fly ON / Fly OFF	selected player, else you	2	low
.dismount	Fly OFF	you	2	low
.modify speed all <n>	Speed n× / Speed normal	selected player, else you	2	low
.modify mount <displayID> <speed>	Fly ON	you	2	see below
.modify hp <n>	Full heal	selected player	2	sets MAX hp
.modify mana <n>	Full heal (mana users)	selected player	2	sets max mana
.modify money <copper>	Modify Char → Add	selected player	2	adds gold
.cheat god on / off	God ON / God OFF	always you	2	low
.cheat status	Cheat status	you	2	none, read-only
.revive <name>	Revive target	named player	2	low
.revive	Revive all (macro)	you	2	low
.die	Kill target	selected unit	2	kills
.summon <name>	Tele → Target	named player	2	moves a player

.playerbots bot addclass <class>	Add bot	new bot	varies	low
.playerbots bot remove <name>	Remove bot	that bot	varies	low

Notes on the risky ones

.modify mount 28082 — 🔴 the flying carpet displayID crashed a worldserver the moment it was applied during testing. systemd restarted it 15 seconds later; roughly 15 minutes of unsaved play was lost across the realm. The same speed value with 28652 is fine, so the model was the trigger. MiniGM defaults to 28652; /mgm flymount will accept any id, including that one. Do not.

.modify hp <n> calls SetMaxHealth(n). It sets your maximum, it does not heal. MiniGM always sends your real UnitHealthMax, so the net effect is a full heal with no lasting change — but anyone copying this command by hand should know what it does.

.modify money adds rather than sets, and acts on your selected player, not you. MiniGM caps it at 100,000 gold per click and requires a positive number.

.character level lowers as readily as it raises. MiniGM refuses any value below the target's current level, refuses values under 1, and caps at 80. It is the only command here that needs gmlevel 3 by default.

.die refuses on no target, on yourself, and on friendly players and bots. It will still kill a hostile player.

What MiniGM never sends

Worth stating explicitly, because these are the neighbouring commands that do real damage:

• autogear reset — destroys all of a bot's worn gear (DestroyEquippedGear). MiniGM only ever sends bare autogear, which stores replaced items to bags.
• .character deleted restore — MiniGM has no account or character-recovery commands at all.
• .ban, .unban, .kick, .mute — no moderation commands.
• .npc …, .gobject … — no world editing.
• .reload, .server … — no server control.
• .account … — no account management, and nothing that could put a password in chat.

Playerbot chat commands

These are not GM commands. They are plain chat that mod-playerbots interprets, so they work at gmlevel 0 and only affect bots you own.

Text	Channel	Sent by	Does
summon	PARTY / RAID	Tele → Party / Raid	every bot in the group teleports to you
summon	WHISPER	Tele → Target	that one bot teleports to you
revive	PARTY	Revive all (macro)	group's bots revive
maintenance	PARTY / RAID	Maint / Gear	permanent: learns weapon skills (set to max), professions/secondary skills, all class + available + special spells, spends all talent points, glyphs, enchants + gems, riding + mounts, dungeon-key reps (70+), attunement quests, pet + pet talents; fills bags/ammo/food/reagents/consumables/potions/keyring; repairs. Source: MaintenanceAction::Execute
autogear	PARTY / RAID	Maint / Gear	equips generated gear up to AutoGearQualityLimit (Rare by default) where it scores ≥ 1.2× the worn item; old item goes to bags, full bags skip the slot. Nothing destroyed. autogear reset and bis are blocked — they destroy worn gear
nc -loot	PARTY / RAID	Maint / Gear	disables the bots' non-combat looting strategy

Self-bot: .playerbots bot self gives your character bot AI, and then it obeys maintenance/autogear in party chat like any bot. MiniGM watches for the server lines Enable player botAI / Disable player botAI; while self-bot is on, Maint/Gear shows the full list above and sends nothing until you type your character name. /mgm selfbot shows the state, /mgm selfbot off clears MiniGM's flag. A command you type into chat yourself is not covered — the server setting AiPlayerbot.SelfBotLevel = 0 blocks self-bot entirely.

Bots ignore .summon; humans ignore chat summon. That asymmetry is why Target sends both forms and why Party/Raid cannot move a human group member.

Secure macro buttons

Four buttons are SecureActionButtonTemplate macros rather than ordinary buttons, because they must act on you when nothing is targeted:

Button	Macro text
Speed n×	/target [noexists] player + /say .modify speed all <n>
Speed normal	/target [noexists] player + /say .modify speed all 1
Full heal	/target [noexists] player + /w <you> .modify hp <max> (+ .modify mana <max>) — whispered to yourself so it works while dead
Revive all	/tar player + /w <you> .revive + /p revive — whispered to yourself so it works while dead

[noexists] means only target yourself if nothing is targeted — with a bot selected, Speed and Full heal apply to the bot.

Blizzard blocks /target from a macro during combat. All four are inert in combat; MiniGM detects this in PostClick and tells you rather than failing silently.

Because macro text cannot be changed during combat either, the Full heal and Speed macros are rebuilt on PLAYER_LOGIN, PLAYER_LEVEL_UP, UNIT_MAXHEALTH and PLAYER_REGEN_ENABLED, each guarded by InCombatLockdown().

Privacy

While you are alive, every GM command goes out in /say, and on a public realm anyone within earshot can read what you are doing. While you are dead, the client refuses /say from a ghost, so MiniGM sends the command as a whisper to yourself instead; the server parses . commands out of a whisper exactly as it does out of /say. The Full heal and Revive all macros always whisper yourself, alive or dead, because their text is fixed when the button is built.
