General Debugging
Enable Debug Mode
Turn on Debug mode in /pills settings → Core → General (Advanced tab). This prints extra [oxide-pills] lines to the console and adds a Machine Test option on every machine (every player sees it while Debug mode is on, but only admins can use it). Turn it off when you're done. See Admin.
Quick test tools
/pills kit: gives every station, tool, ingredient and packaging item (admin)/pills setlevel [id] [level]: set a level to test level-gated stations and lines (admin)/pills traytest: fills a press tray with one of every defect (admin)/pills stats: confirms the client can talk to the server and read progression
See Admin for the permission setup these need.
