    SERVERS RUNNING ALPHA 20.4 OR ABOVE DO THESE STEPS:

    You can use either SteamID64 or Epic Online Services ID.

    To find your SteamID64 use this site → https://steamid.io/lookup

    To find EOS ID you must join the server then check the logs - Remove the EOS_ part when entering the value below.


    1. Log into the game panel, select your server from game services then go to configuration files

    2. Open pingadmin.xml using the config editor or text-editor

    3. If using config editor, click either "New [Steam] Admin" or "New [Epic] Admin" then enter the relevant ID

      If using text editor, add the following line for a Steam admin:
      <user platform="Steam" userid="YourSteamID64Here" permission_level="0" />
      or add the following line for an Epic admin:
      <user platform="EOS" userid="YourEpicOnlineServicesIDHere" permission_level="0" />

    4. Save the file in the top left.

    5. Startup your server.

    6. You now have access to all the commands listed in that file.

    A working admin file would look like this:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!--
    This file holds the settings for who is banned, whitelisted,
    admins and server command permissions. The admin and whitelist sections can contain
    both individual Steam users as well as Steam groups.

    http://steamid.co/ instructions:
    Input the player's name in the search field. example: Kinyajuu
    If the name doesn't work, you can also use the url of their steam page.

    /memberslistxml/?xml=1
    to the end. You will get the XML information of the group which should have an entry
    memberList->groupID64.
    Example: The 'Steam Universe' group has the address
    https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse
    So you point your browser to
    https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse/memberslistxml/?xml=1
    And see that the groupID64 is 103582791434672565.
