Multiplayer admin commands
« on: April 27, 2012, 11:44:26 pm »
I'm having trouble getting the multiplayer admin commands to work right, specifically claim_admin_rights. It mentions putting in a password afterwards so the server knows you should have the rights. However, I never set a password when making my server, there was nowhere to do so. As far as I can tell, both that command and the others do not currently work for me, which is frustrating when trying to run a high difficulty server, and people keep turning it down super low. Any advice on how to get them to work/a server cfg file I could edit to change these?

You need to find your server settings file on the computer the server is on. Add the line below to the bottom of the file. This will set the admin password to whatever you chose. Then you can use your admin commands ingame to set up permissions and such. Hope this helps!
Code: [Select]
AdminPassword:<password>

That did help, along with someone on my server telling me to use cmd: before commands. I know it probably isn't a priority at the moment, but the multiplayer section of the encyclopedia could really use some updating.

Here is the wiki area for admin commands. It's also out of date but it might have more descriptive information.
