I am asking because I have not found this in the EAH guide as to exactly what it is or how to use it. If I have just missed I am sorry for the bother can you direct me to it. Thank You for the time.

Send in-game console commands to a player or playfield  
Player example: remoteex cl=xyz sector Akua (replace xyz with your player client ID)

replace 13012 with the Playfield Proccess ID  
The other number is the entity ID of the ship/poi

known to work:

remoteex cl=P ‘marker add name=N pos=X,Y,Z w wd expire=T’

w for Waypoint (optional, currently bugged. all plotted coordinates show as waypoints)  
wd = remove when player gets close (not tested, may be default)

Variables:  
P = [clientID](https://empyrion.fandom.com/wiki/ClientID)  
N = a string with no spaces  
X/Y/Z = the coordinates, whole numbers ONLY  
T = time in seconds till the mark dissapears (Note: can’t use wd and Expire in the same mark)

For all valid RemoteEx commands ([ConsoleCommands](https://empyrion.fandom.com/wiki/Console_Commands))

Note, that Console Commands with spaces must be inside quotationmarks to work.
