1. Authenticating as Admin
Before you can use commands, you must log in:
- Open the in-game console (default key:
~ or End).
- Type:
adminlogin YOUR_PASSWORD
- If successful, you will now have access to administrative rights for the session.
2. Essential Admin Commands
| Command | Action |
|---|
| playerlist | Displays all active players and their unique PlayFab IDs. |
| kick [ID/Name] | Removes a player from the current session. |
| ban [ID/Name] | Permanently restricts a player’s access. |
| changelevel [Map] | Instantly switches the server to a new map. |
| parrythis | A fun admin-only command to instantly kill a target player. |
3. Persistent Admin List (Admins.txt)
To avoid logging in every time, you can whitelist your SteamID:
- Navigate to
/Mordhau/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/.
- Open
Admins.txt.
- Add your PlayFab ID (retrieved from
playerlist) on a new line.
