How to become admin on your Icarus server and use admin commands

IcarusUpdated Oct 5, 20263 min read
  1. In the panel, go to Settings, then Game Settings, and fill in Admin Password. Choose something different from the Join Password and do not leave it empty.
  2. Restart the server so the password is applied.
  3. Join the server in game, open the chat and type /AdminLogin followed by the password you set.
  4. You now have admin rights for your session and can use the commands below, delete prospects and load or create prospects. Without admin rights anyone in the lobby can start or load a prospect, but only admins can delete one.

Useful admin commands
