The backup command ./ssm backup <serverFolder> or ./ssm backup sdtdserver will zip the entire game server folder and place it in Steam-server-Manager\backups. You have the option to disable the view of the backup console during the backup. This can be turned off in local_settings.ps1. It's enabled by default and you will see a blinking cursor till the backup job is done. It will open the backup log when finished.

servers with AppData game saves like 7 Days to Die, will have the AppData folder saved as well.

a few features for backups can be changed in local_settings.ps1

Depends on the Portable Version of 7Zip. 7Zip will be downloaded on the first run or if 7zip.exe is missing
