@DUMP

@dump [ <filename> ] (Mage only.)

Only wizards may use this command. Saves the database from memory to disk. Only the Man (player #1) can dump to a different filename. New dumps also use this filename so use it with caution. Automatically occurs every three hours, and when @shutdown is used. It does slow down the server, so only use if you fear a server crash is iminent. If a filename is given, it will save the db to that file, and save any subsequent dumps to it as well.

See also: @armageddon, @delta, @restart, and @shutdown.
