Icarus dedicated server admin commands are typed in the in-game chat with a / or \ in front, for example /AdminLogin password12345. Log in with AdminLogin first; then you can use KickPlayer, BanPlayer, UnbanPlayer, ReturnToLobby, ReturnToLobbyWhenEmpty and AdminSay. In the Server Lobby, LoadProspect, CreateProspect and ResumeProspect work without the slash.

Before you start

  • Set AdminPassword in Icarus/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/ServerSettings.ini. See become admin.

Icarus admin commands

Commands marked “Yes” need you to be logged in as admin.

Icarus lobby commands

Use these in the Server Lobby, before a prospect is loaded. You don’t need the slash there. Find the prospect types on prospect settings.

How to find a player’s Steam ID

Use the player name if it is unique. Otherwise ask the player for their Steam ID (the 17-digit number in their Steam profile address), or look it up in Icarus/Saved/PlayerBanList.txt after a ban.

Frequently asked questions

Can I type these commands in the panel console?

Type them in the in-game chat. The panel console shows the server log.

How do I restart the server from inside the game?

There is no restart command. Use Restart in the Game Panel, or ReturnToLobby if you only want to close the prospect.

Do bans survive a restart?

Yes. Bans are saved in PlayerBanList.txt in Icarus/Saved, and banned players can’t rejoin until you unban them.

Are there cheat or spawn commands?

RocketWerkz’s server docs list only the commands on this page, and none of them spawns items or changes resources.
