Starbound Admin Commands

This guide covers how to set up server administrator accounts and use admin commands on your Starbound dedicated server. For initial server setup and configuration, see Starbound Server Setup Guide. For mod installation, see Starbound Mod Installation.

Server Panel: All server management is done through GPanel at gpanel.legionhosting.net. Use the File Manager or SFTP to edit configuration files.

Adding Admin Accounts

Server administrators can use in-game commands to manage players, teleport, spawn items, and more. Admin accounts are configured in the starbound_server.config file, located at storage/starbound_server.config.

Add admin users to the serverUsers section of your config file:

"serverUsers" : {
  "AdminPlayer" : {
    "admin" : true,
    "password" : "a-secure-password"
  },
  "RegularPlayer" : {
    "admin" : false,
    "password" : "player-password"
  }
}

Players configured in serverUsers will be prompted for their password when connecting to the server. Set "admin" : true to grant admin privileges.

Related Config Settings

Setting	Description
`allowAdminCommands`	Set to `true` to enable admin commands on the server (default: `true`).
`allowAdminCommandsFromAnyone`	Set to `true` to let any connected player use admin commands (not recommended). Default is `false`.

Common Admin Commands

Admin commands are entered in the in-game chat window (press Enter or T to open chat). All commands start with /.

Command	Description
`/admin`	Toggles admin mode on/off for your character. Enables creative-like abilities and access to admin commands.
`/ban <player> <reason> <duration>`	Bans a player from the server. Duration can be specified (e.g., `1h`, `1d`) or omitted for permanent.
`/kick <player> <reason>`	Kicks a player from the server.
`/list`	Lists all currently connected players.
`/whereis <player>`	Shows the coordinates of a specified player.
`/warp <player> <destination>`	Warps a player to a specified location.
`/spawnitem <itemname> <count>`	Spawns an item at your character's position (requires admin mode).
`/spawnnpc <species> <type> <level>`	Spawns an NPC at your position (requires admin mode).
`/spawnmonster <type> <level>`	Spawns a monster at your position (requires admin mode).
`/setspawnpoint`	Sets your current location as your spawn point.
`/timewarp <seconds>`	Advances the game time by the specified number of seconds.

Admin mode toggle: Remember to type /admin in chat to activate admin mode before using commands like /spawnitem. Admin mode also grants invincibility and creative inventory access. Type /admin again to deactivate it when you are done.
