Use the connect line on the Dashboard (your VPS public IP and game port, default
25565). Open firewall ports before inviting friends. - Files, worlds & safe restarts On Files, click a folder to open it — text configs edit in-panel; jars and world data use Download.

Firewall tips
Allow at least these ports on the VPS / cloud security group:
- Panel web UI — TCP
8095 - Minecraft game — TCP
25565(or the port set in Settings)
Example (UFW):
sudo ufw allow 8095/tcp && sudo ufw allow 25565/tcp && sudo ufw reload
