Enable the Whitelist

The whitelist in Unturned allows you to protect your game server by permitting only selected players on the list to connect. You activate the whitelist in-game using a command. You need owner rights to do this. If you don’t know what that is or how to assign them, check out our guide: Become an Admin

Once you have followed the guide and successfully become an admin, you can now enable the whitelist on your server. Open the chat/console in-game on your server and enter the following command:

Code
/Whitelisted

The whitelist should now be active and only allow players on the list to join the server. Adding and removing players works with the following commands.
