Commands Chat

These commands are available to all clients on a server (even the ones without the patch) and they are executed by sending chat messages with a specific command prefix.

By default, the chat command prefix set by the server is ! (ser_strCommandPrefix command).

Everyone

• !help [page] - Display a list of available commands on a specific page.
• !map - Display the name of the current level and its world file.
• !login <password> - Log in as a server administrator using the password from ser_strAdminPassword, or as an operator using the password from ser_strOperatorPassword.

Voting system

• !votemap [map index] - Initiate a voting process to change the current map with another one from the current map pool. If no index is specified, a list of available maps in the pool is displayed.
• !votekick [client] - Initiate a voting process to kick a specific client under a specific index. If no index is specified, a list of current server clients with their players is displayed.
• !votemute [client] - Initiate a voting process to mute a specific client under a specific index. If no index is specified, a list of current server clients with their players is displayed.
• !voteskip - Initiate a voting process to skip the current round on a dedicated server and restart it on the next one.

Note

Only works on servers launched via the dedicated server application!

• !y - Vote "yes" during active voting. Cannot change your vote afterwards.
• !n - Vote "no" during active voting. Cannot change your vote afterwards.

Admins only

• !log [client] [character] - Display a log of clients that have ever connected to the server, along with their client identity index. These indices are used in other commands.
  • First index is for displaying information about a specific client identity (starting from 0).
  • Second index is for displaying information about a specific character of a specific client identity (starting from 1).
• !ban <client> [time] - Ban all clients under a specific identity index for a specific amount of time. If the time is set to less than 0, then an indefinite time is set.
  • Example: !ban 1 3600 - Bans all clients under the second identity index for 1 hour.
• !mute <client> [time] - Mute all clients under a specific identity index for a specific amount of time. If the time is set to less than 0, then an indefinite time is set.
  • Example: !mute 2 - Mutes clients under the third identity index for 5 minutes.
• !kick <client> [reason] - Kick all clients under a specific identity index, with an optional reason.
  • Example: !kick 1 You are a headless freak! - Kicks all clients under the second identity index with a reason.

Operators only

• !rcon <command> - Execute any server-side console commands as if they were entered directly by the server client.
  • Example: !rcon Quit() - Remotely shuts down dedicated server.
• !save [filename] - Save the current game on the same computer where the dedicated server is running. The file is saved under the SaveGame/Network directory and the filename defaults to RemoteSave, if left empty.
