Audit Log

Everything Asphyxia and your staff have done, in one filterable timeline.

Updated View as Markdown

The Audit Log is the full record for the selected server: detections, connections, admin actions and system events, newest first.

This page covers the entry types, severity levels, and how to filter the log during an investigation.

Entry types

Type Records
Connection Players joining
Disconnect Players leaving, with reason and session length
Detection A detection firing
Admin action Something a staff member did, with their name
Config Configuration changes and identifier changes
System Startup, shutdown and internal events

This is what makes misuse of the moderation tools visible after the fact.

Severity

Level Meaning
Info Routine
Warning Worth noticing
Critical Needs attention — a ban, a failed integrity check, unusual admin activity

Filtering to critical is a reasonable daily check.

Identifier changes

When a returning player’s identifiers do not match what was stored, the change is logged as a config warning showing exactly what differs.

This is usually innocent — a newly linked Steam account, or a changed IP. Repeated changes on one account are worth reviewing, since dropping an identifier is one way to avoid a ban.

Retention

Old entries are removed according to Log Retention on Configuration. Setting it to 0 keeps everything indefinitely, and the table grows without limit.

Filtering

Search matches type, severity, player name and message. Combine it with the type and severity filters to narrow an investigation — admin actions at critical severity, for example, is a short list.
