Do not share the admin password.

2

Common commands:

• /ShowPlayers : lists connected players (useful to retrieve a SteamID).

• /KickPlayer <SteamID> : kicks a player.

• /BanPlayer <SteamID> : bans a player.

• /Broadcast <message> : global message.

• /Save : world save.

• /Info : server info.

• /Shutdown <seconds> <message> : scheduled shutdown.

• /DoExit : immediate shutdown.

• /TeleportToPlayer <SteamID> : teleports you to a player.

• /TeleportToMe <SteamID> : teleports a player to you.

The value SteamID usually expects a SteamID64.

Use /ShowPlayers to retrieve it.
