It's easy to configure your Pingperfect SCUM Server so that you can modify the server settings. Just follow the steps below.

  1. You will firstly need to retrieve the Steam64ID of the player you would like to make able to access the server settings. This can be done by pasting a link to the Steam profile of the player into this website: https://steamid.io/lookup

  2. In your game panel, navigate to Configuration Files and then open the ServerSettingsAdminUsers.ini through your preferred editing method - either Text Editor or Configuration Editor.



  3. Within the configuration editor, simply click the "New" button to create a new line and then insert the Steam64ID of the player into the box like so...



    Then click "Save & Exit"

  4. If you are using the Text editor, each Steam64ID will need to go onto its own line, like so...



    Then click "Save & Exit"

  5. Startup your server.

  6. Connect to your server.

  7. Press the "Esc" key.

  8. You will see a new option called SERVER SETTINGS. Click "SERVER SETTINGS".



  9. Make the changes you desire, then click "Apply."

    IMPORTANT: Do note though, settings marked with a * still require a restart before it is active.
