Have you read the bit here about in game admin?
ADMIN_PASS -> In game admin password.

In game admin information:
How in game admin works is in your chat line you type "password command parameters". Minus, the " of course. Here are the commands then:
say <something to say>
Does what you think it does
cm <something to say>
Center Message
com <something to say>
Console Message
ul
User List with IDs,
ku <ID>
Kick User with following ID

I've only gotten it to work by putting the ADMIN_PASS directive in my everytime.cfg file. If I just put it in the normal settings.cfg and/or settings_dedicated.cfg, no go. But when I put it in everytime.cfg, works fine. :)

Code: Select all

ADMIN_PASS TANK
In settings.cfg should work. I have it placed after MAX_CLIENTS. Then in game I just do 'TANK ku 3' in the chat line. Although, you might want to try with an all lower case password, as I don't ever recall trying with upper case... Could be a weird bug. Also, sticking color codes or using passwords with '0x' could have adverse effects.

(Note: my password is NOT 'TANK' in any case, but I in place as mentioned have a lower case password. 'TANK' is simply used for the shake of an example.)
