Hi!
After issuing "pzserver stop" command (PZ =project zomboid) ,
server terminates with data loss. Player building structures suffer, sometimes inventory items missing etc.
To correctly shutdown server task, RCON or server console "quit" command must be entered

Incorrect method of shutdown used for app id 380870 (Prozect zomboid)

Graceful shutdown must be done by sending "quit" command to tmux session.
During LGSM "pzserver stop" i see in logs:
i/o error
java.io.IOException:
at java.io.FileInputStream.readBytes(Native Method)
at java.io.FileInputStream.read(FileInputStream.java:272)
at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(BufferedInputStream.java:273)

After issuing
tmux send -t 0 quit ENTER
i've got
