GetGameLog

About

GetGameLog is a cheat-level console command that outputs the server's current game log. Use it to review recent events, errors, or activity on your server without stopping the server or accessing log files directly.

Because it is a cheat command, you must first enable cheats on your server before you can execute it. The output appears in your console window or admin chat, depending on how you're connected.
