The most used are #kick name, #exec ban "name", #missions, #restart, #reassign, #lock, #unlock, #monitor 5 and #shutdown. Players without admin rights can use the #vote commands. New to admin rights?

Player commands (kick and ban)

Server commands

To start the server again after #shutdown, click Start in the panel. For planned restarts, a schedule is easier.

Performance and network commands

See server FPS for what the numbers mean.

​

Vote commands (any player)

How many votes are needed is set by voteThreshold in server.cfg (our default 0.33, so 33%).

Frequently asked questions

​

Can I type these commands in the panel console?

The # commands are chat commands for players in the game. Use them in game after #login. For remote control, use BattlEye RCon.

​

Where are bans saved?

#exec ban writes the player’s ID to ban.txt. Remove a ban with #exec unban "UID".

​

How do I restart the mission without restarting the server?

Use #restart, or #reassign if players should pick new roles.
