User story

As a server admin, I want to stop the server gracefully so that using shutdown command.

Game

Palworld

Linux distro

No response

Command

command: stop

Further information

I found one of the devs answered the question about how to shutdown the Palworld server.

Devs answered:

It is recommend to use the shutdown command to avoid any risk of world data corruption
They think kill term and SIGINT(CTRL+C) are doing same behavior, but it's likely has not been handled as terminate processing

To issue the shutdown command, we have to use RCON or REST API, so I want to suggest to make stop command customizable so that call curl command.

Reference: shutdown command using REST API
