- Stop the server, open server.cfg in Files, and remove the // in front of the passwordAdmin line. Set it to your own admin password inside the quotes. If there is no passwordAdmin line in the file, add this line yourself:
passwordAdmin = "yourpassword";with your own password. - Optional: to let trusted players log in without a password, remove the // in front of the admins[] line and list their player UIDs (their Steam ID 64 number) inside the braces, separated by commas.
- Start the server and join it from the game.
- In game, open chat (the / key by default), type #login followed by your admin password, and press Enter. If you are listed in admins[], type just #login.
- Once logged in, type #missions to choose a mission. Type #logout when you are done.
- Only one logged-in admin can be active at a time, and a new admin cannot log in until the current one logs out.
