  1. Find your SteamID64, the 17-digit number starting with 7656.
  2. Stop the server, open serverconfig/ownerswhitelist.txt in Files and add your SteamID64 on its own line. Create the file if it is missing. Lines starting with # are comments.
  3. Start the server and join it. The game now recognises you as an administrator.
