Administrative Authentication

Before you can execute any commands, you must authenticate yourself as an authorized administrator within the in-game chat console.
1

Set Your Password

Ensure that the ADMIN_PASSWORD variable is defined in your server_cfg.ini file.
2

Join and Login

Join your server and open the in-game chat by pressing Y. Type the following command:
/admin YourSecretPassword
3

Confirm Status

If successful, the system will broadcast a private message to you: “You are now administrator.”

​
Core Command Reference

The table below lists the most important commands for active race management.
CommandAction
/kick [Name]Instantly disconnects a player from the current session.
/ban [Name]Permanently blacklists a player and adds their SteamID64 to blacklist.txt.
/next_sessionImmediately advances the server to the next stage (e.g., Practice to Qualifying).
/restart_sessionRestarts the current active session (e.g., resets the Race timer).

​
Tactical Automation

If you are a league coordinator who frequently manages sessions while driving, we recommend binding these common chat commands to a keyboard or wheel macro (using software like Razer Synapse or SimHub). This allows for instant race control without needing to take your hands off the wheel.
