you need to be in game hit ~ then type "gm key [your admin pass]" youll need to type your admin pw again click become admin, then you will see your server options.
here is a video I used on yt to figure out how they are using Gportal but it all works the same
I just rented a server, but since I can't change any settings on the website, I thought I could change the settings in-game.
But the keybinding being "~" is absolutely ridiculous, because the game doesn't recognize it as that keybinding whehnever I'm trying to enter it.
How do I reach the commands? How do I change settings?
Check the box for "Reinstall Server" and click "Save Settings and Restart Game Server" at the bottom of the page; as soon as I did that, the server started up for me. Took a couple minutes for it to be "Ready" though, so give it time. Would be nice if they put out some information on how to fix the issue instead of customers having to troubleshoot and help others with the fix.
How do I connect directly to my ARK server, since I can't seem to find anywhere on the Control panel page to connect that way. I used to have a batch file I ran to do it back years ago, but it's been so long since I've done any batch files, I totally forgot how to redo it.
