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. Further questions or additions to this guide feel free to post here. Thanks
