To stop griefers on a BeamMP server, kick them from the Game Panel console with kick <name> [reason], set AllowGuests = false in ServerConfig.toml so only players with a BeamMP account can join, keep Max Cars low, and add a small Lua plugin that refuses banned players in onPlayerAuth. BeamMP’s server config has no collision switch, so “no collision” needs a mod or plugin, not a setting.

​
How to kick a griefer

Open Console in the Game Panel, type list to see names, then:
Example: kick Driver42 Ramming at spawn. See all console commands.

​
How to block guest players

1

Open the config

In Files, open ServerConfig.toml.
2

Turn guests off

Set AllowGuests = false and save. The panel keeps this setting from the file.
3

Restart

Restart the server.

​
How to ban players with a Lua plugin

The console has no ban command, so use a plugin. Create Resources/Server/BanList/main.lua:
Restart the server. A player on the list sees the message and can’t join. Names can change, so for a stronger ban use the player’s BeamMP ID: print it with MP.GetPlayerIdentifiers(player_id) in a onPlayerConnecting handler and compare identifiers.beammp instead of the name. To turn the list into an allowlist (only listed players can join), change the check to if not allowed[player_name] then.

​
Can I turn off collisions on a BeamMP server?

ServerConfig.toml has no collision setting, and the server console has no command for it. If you want it, look for a community mod or plugin that adds it. Install it as described in install mods and follow the author’s instructions.

​
Frequently asked questions

​
How do I remove a griefer’s car without kicking them?

From a plugin, MP.RemoveVehicle(player_id, vehicle_id) deletes one vehicle. See Lua events.

​
Can I hide chat insults?

Yes. In an onChatMessage handler, return 1 for messages that contain words you block; the message is then hidden from everyone.

​
Does making the server private stop griefers?

It helps: a private server isn’t in the list. Anyone with your IP and port can still join, so share it carefully.
