Night of the Dead Admin Commands

night-of-the-dead admin commands management 0 وجدوا هذا المقال مفيداً

This guide covers administration for your Night of the Dead dedicated server, including admin setup, console commands, player management, world management, and troubleshooting. For initial server setup, see Night of the Dead Server Setup Guide.

Admin Setup

Night of the Dead uses a password-based admin system. To gain admin access, you need to configure an admin password and authenticate in-game.

Setting the Admin Password

  1. Stop your server from GPanel.
  2. Go to the Startup tab and set the SERVER_ADMIN_PASSWORD variable, or edit the server configuration file directly.
  3. In the configuration file (LF/Saved/Config/ServerSettings.ini), set:
[SystemSettings]
IngameAdminPassword=YourSecureAdminPassword
  1. Save the file and start the server.

Logging In as Admin

Once connected to your server in-game:

  1. Open the in-game console by pressing ` (tilde/backtick) or the designated console key.
  2. Type the following command to authenticate:
    EnableCheats YourSecureAdminPassword
  3. If the password is correct, you will receive a confirmation message and gain access to admin commands.
Security: Choose a strong admin password and only share it with trusted players. Anyone with the admin password has full control over the server, including the ability to kick players, modify settings, and manage the world.

Adding Persistent Admins

For servers with multiple admins, you can add Steam IDs to a whitelist so they do not need to re-authenticate each session. Add entries to the configuration file:

[ServerSettings]
# Admin Steam IDs (one per line)
AdminSteamID=76561198012345678
AdminSteamID=76561198087654321
Finding Steam64 IDs: Players can find their Steam64 ID at steamid.io. The ID is a 17-digit number starting with 7656119.

Console Commands

Admin commands are executed through the in-game console (press `) after authenticating. The following tables list the most commonly used commands.

Player Management

Command Usage Description
ListPlayers ListPlayers List all connected players with their IDs
KickPlayer KickPlayer <playerID> Kick a player from the server
BanPlayer BanPlayer <playerID> Ban a player from the server
UnbanPlayer UnbanPlayer <steamID> Remove a ban by Steam ID
ServerMessage ServerMessage <text> Send a broadcast message to all players

World and Game Control

Command Usage Description
SetTimeOfDay SetTimeOfDay <hour> Set the in-game time (0-24, e.g., 12 for noon)
SetDifficulty SetDifficulty <level> Change the difficulty (0=Easy, 1=Normal, 2=Hard, 3=Nightmare)
SaveWorld SaveWorld Force a manual save of the world state
SetWeather SetWeather <type> Change the current weather (clear, rain, fog, storm)
TogglePvP TogglePvP Enable or disable PvP mode
Shutdown Shutdown <seconds> <message> Schedule a server shutdown with warning message

Spawn and Utility Commands

  • GiveItem <itemID> <amount> -- give an item to yourself
  • GiveItemToPlayer <playerID> <itemID> <amount> -- give an item to a player
  • GiveExperience <amount> -- grant experience points
  • Teleport <x> <y> <z> -- teleport to coordinates
  • TeleportToPlayer <playerID> -- teleport to another player
  • God -- toggle invincibility
  • Fly -- toggle fly mode for free movement
Note: Spawn and cheat commands affect gameplay for all players. Use them sparingly on public servers.

World Management

Saving the World

The server auto-saves at regular intervals, but you can force a manual save at any time using the SaveWorld command. This is recommended before performing any administrative actions that might affect the world state.

Resetting the World

To perform a full world reset:

  1. Stop the server from GPanel.
  2. Navigate to LF/Saved/SaveGames/ via the File Manager or SFTP.
  3. Delete or rename the save files in this directory.
  4. Start the server. A fresh world will be generated.
Backup first: Before resetting, download a copy of your save files. This allows you to restore the world later if needed. Rename the folder rather than deleting it (e.g., SaveGames_backup).

Managing Day/Night Cycle

Use SetTimeOfDay <hour> to change the time at runtime (e.g., SetTimeOfDay 12 for noon). For permanent changes, modify the DayNightCycleSpeed and DayTimeRatio values in the configuration file (see the Server Setup Guide).

Ban Management

Use BanPlayer <playerID> to ban a connected player and UnbanPlayer <steamID> to remove a ban. The ban list file is located in the server's configuration directory and can be edited directly via SFTP when the server is stopped.

Troubleshooting

Server Not Appearing in Browser

  • Wait at least 2-3 minutes after startup for the server to register with the master server list.
  • Verify the server started successfully by checking the console output in GPanel.
  • Try connecting via direct IP to confirm the server is running.

Server Crashes

  • Check the server logs in LF/Saved/Logs/ for error details.
  • Corrupted save files can cause crashes -- try renaming the save directory and starting fresh to test.
  • If crashes occur after a game update, try reinstalling via GPanel's Reinstall option (back up saves and configs first).
  • Large player-built bases can impact performance. Reduce ZombieSpawnRate if the server struggles during horde events.

Players Cannot Connect

  • Confirm the server is fully started in GPanel and has not reached the MaxPlayers limit.
  • If using a password, ensure players are entering it correctly.
  • Verify all players are running the same game version as the server.
