The fields for Cop and Medic levels are at the top of the list:
Here you can easily select the rank level from the dropdown menu. Levels range from 1 to 7 for Cops and 1 to 5 for Medics.
The higher the level, the more rights the Cop or Medic has in the game. This affects available weapons and vehicles, among other things.
Set the Admin level as described above, but the entry is located further down:
Here you can also choose from 5 different levels via dropdown. The higher the level, the more rights the administrator has in the game.
To save the changes, simply click the GO button at the bottom right:
The ranks are now saved and will become active as soon as the player reconnects to the server. A server restart is not necessary.
