Use this page first when something is broken. Start with connection health, then follow the symptom path below.

Check the exact symptom

What you seeWhat to do
Not linked / wrong gamertagCheck the linked Discord account and platform in Player Tools; repair the link before retrying.
Missing required roleCheck the feature's role rule and the member's actual Discord roles.
Feature disabledOpen the selected server's module and check its enabled state and saved settings.
Disconnected / request timed outCheck Server Management and hosting-panel RCON details. After a write error, refresh to see whether the change already applied.
Cooldown activeRead the remaining time. Staff can reset the specific cooldown when appropriate; avoid a community-wide reset.
Reward did not arriveCheck /bag, delivery status, server eligibility, and the actual kit or item before granting another copy.
Bag fullFree a bag slot, then retry the claim.
Claim expiredCheck the giveaway or event's claim window; staff should inspect the original result before replacing a reward.
Premium is missingCheck the server and purchasing account with /premium status; keep the payment reference.
Top-up button unavailableRead the message under Add Credits. Do not pay again for a completed payment that is still processing.
Location capture failsBe online on the exact game server with your own Discord account linked; check that Helios can see your player.

For billing, see Premium Credit. For staff access, see Permissions & Roles.

1) First 3 Checks

  1. Run /server list and confirm the right server is enabled.
  2. Run /cmd send command:"fps" on the affected server.
  3. Run /whoson to confirm polling response.

If these fail, go directly to Server Connection Troubleshooting.

2) Common Problems

Commands fail or timeout

Feeds are silent in Discord

Raid alerts are missing

  • Likely cause: incorrect raid channel setup or stale raid code.
  • Next page: Raid Alerts.

Player economy commands fail

TP/Home or zone behavior feels wrong

3) What To Capture Before Support

  • Server name
  • Exact command used
  • Timestamp
  • Error output or screenshot
  • Last time it worked
