New 2.8 remote admining commands.

Post by Self_Destructo »

Umm, i haven't been able to figure out what to type for remote admining from the in-game chat. If someone wouldn't mind I would like a list of everything I can do (but kicking is a must). Thanks.

And where "command" is any console command or any of the previously existing commands.

There's also /players or /clients, I forget which, for everyone to see the ids so you can do /msg I think it is, etc.

Yeah. it's /players. which is nice so everyone can see the user list.... and I like that style of kicking to because you just use the id instead of the name. Like last night I had a bot on my server and I could not kick him from the console for some reason..... but i could not kick from inside the game becasue I did not know how to get the player id's. But anyways. One thing about it, it sure is handy to be able to change the game config remotely.
