(Details may vary with products from different providers but the main concepts remain the same)

Introduction

The assignment of administrator permissions allows you simple and comprehensive administration with full control of your server. As an administrator, you have the option of using all available options and functions provided by the game directly in the game. All the steps you need to take to assign administrator permissions for your server will be described below.

Configuration

Adding an admin is done via the Users.eco Config, which you can find in the interface under Configs.

To add a new player as admin the following part in the Users.eco Config has to be adjusted:

  "Admins": {
    "System.String": {
      "$type": "System.Collections.Generic.List`1[[System.String, System.Private.CoreLib]], System.Private.CoreLib",
      "$values": []
    }
  },

The player who is supposed to become admin is specified in the field values. In case of several admins, they are added comma separated. To identify the player the SteamID64 is used.

You can find it by accessing your Steam profile and then right-clicking anywhere on the profile. There you can copy the Steam URL of your profile..

Afterwards, the URL must be typed in one of the following websites:

This will provide you the general account information as well as the Steam ID. This one will then be inserted at values. The result of this looks like this:

  "Admins": {
    "System.String": {
      "$type": "System.Collections.Generic.List`1[[System.String, System.Private.CoreLib]], System.Private.CoreLib",
      "$values": [
			"123456789",
			"anotherSteamID"
	]
    }
  },

Once the server has been restarted, players registered there have been assigned administrator privileges. If you want to add more admins, then you don't have to do this always via the Config anymore. Instead you can do this in game by using the following command:

/admin [player]

In the following you will find an overview of common used admin commands that you can execute as an admin.
