Syntax Notes: Before you proceding with this wiki page it is worth nothing that:

• All category inputs must be prefixed with a #
• Some keywords need to match Capitalization
• The player input can contain a whitespace 0xA0 to filter offline from online players in the tab completion, this will leave an extra "space" before the player name, if this space bothers you, you can configure it to not filter online players altogether
• The tab completion is your best friend for these commands, so if you dont have acess to the wiki, you can rely on the tab completion
