    neal121 got a reaction from JustJ3ss in Creating an Admin, admin commands, ban list   
    Hello Everyone.
    This information was posted during version Early Access 1.0.1
     
    I am a big fan of Survival Servers and what they host and have been a returning customer of what they provide for years. This time I was looking into Outlaws of the Old West and did not find anything here. Here is what I found:
     
    Adding Admin:
    - Navigate on the FTP to *server install*/Outlaws/Saved where a file should have been pre-made called AdminList.txt - if file does not exist just make a new one but server should have it made (mine was auto created). If you do not see it you may be in the wrong spot.
     
    - Retrieve your 17 digit steamID from any steam profile website. Personally I use https://steamid.io/- you just need your steam profile link.
     
    - Post it in the file. Other admins are to be added on each individual line. I do not see any individual admin access abilities (ranks) at this time.
     
    - Restart Server
     
    To activate GM/Admin Menu:
     
    - In-game press SHIFT then ~
     
    - Console will be at bottom of screen.
     
    - Type “activateAdmin” and press enter.
     
    - Admin Window will be an option if you check the menu by pressing ESC.
     
    - Use this to add more admins, kick or ban players. I am sure more commands and abilities will show up in the future.
     
    Special Commands -
    Once again press Shift then ~ and admin console will show up again.
     
    Here are some commands that can be typed in. I am sure more will show up as game progresses.
     
    GMbuff – buffs player health and stamina to unlimited and stops hunger/thirst. (as of this post, cannot be turned off without reconnecting)
     
    Teleport x y - teleport to given coordinates (coordinates from in-game map)
     
    DestroyTarget – destroys the target at the center of aim. Leaving nothing behind.
     
    KillTarget – applies max damage to target at center of aim.
     
    RefreshAdminTextList – reloads admin list from file.
     
    RefreshBanTextList – reloads ban list from file.
     
     
    How to Edit Ban List:
     
    - Just like the admin file. Return to /outlaws/saved on the server.
     
    - Look for (or create) BanList.txt (mine was auto created by server)
     
    - Remove or insert SteamIDs as needed, each on individual lines.
     
     
    -------
     
    In closing. The game is still super new and in very early access -  I am sure we can all expect further changes to both the game and how dedicated servers are operated.
