Sven Co-op Admin Commands

Available in: ESPAÑOL

This guide covers admin setup, RCON commands, player management, map management, AMX/plugin support, custom maps, and troubleshooting for your Sven Co-op dedicated server. Sven Co-op is a cooperative multiplayer mod for Half-Life where players tackle campaigns together. For initial setup, configuration, and connection instructions, see Sven Co-op Server Setup Guide.

1. Admin Setup (users.ini)

Sven Co-op uses svencoop/users.ini to define admin accounts and permissions.

Adding an Admin

# Format: "STEAM_ID" "password" "access_flags" "name"
"STEAM_0:1:12345678" "" "abcdefghijklmn" "AdminName"

Access Flags

FlagPermission
aImmunity (cannot be kicked/banned by other admins)
bReservation (reserved slot access)
cKick players
dBan players
eUnban players
fSlay/slap players
gChange map
hExecute server cvars
nRCON access

For full admin, use all flags: "abcdefghijklmn"

Finding your Steam ID: Open the console (~) while connected and type status. Your Steam ID appears in STEAM_0:X:XXXXXXXX format.

2. RCON Commands

Use RCON through the GPanel console, in-game console, or a third-party tool. Authenticate in-game with:

rcon_password YourRconPassword
rcon <command>

Player Management

CommandDescription
rcon kick <userid>Kick a player by user ID.
rcon banid <minutes> <userid>Ban a player. Use 0 for permanent.
rcon addip <minutes> <ip>Ban an IP address.
rcon removeip <ip>Remove an IP ban.
rcon statusList all players with user IDs and Steam IDs.

Map and Server Commands

CommandDescription
rcon changelevel <mapname>Change map, keeping players connected.
rcon map <mapname>Load map from scratch, disconnecting all players.
rcon mapsList all available maps.
rcon hostname "Name"Change the server name.
rcon sv_password "pass"Set or change join password.
rcon say "message"Send a server-wide chat message.
rcon exec <filename>Execute a configuration file.
rcon quitShut down the server.

3. AMX/Plugin Support

Sven Co-op supports AngelScript plugins (built-in) and AMX Mod X for extended functionality.

AngelScript Plugins (Built-in)

Place plugins in svencoop/scripts/plugins/ and register them in svencoop/default_plugins.txt.

AMX Mod X

  1. Stop the server from GPanel.
  2. Download AMX Mod X for Sven Co-op and upload via SFTP.
  3. Configure admin access through the AMX Mod X users.ini file.
  4. Start the server and verify in the console.

Popular Plugins

  • Admin tools: Enhanced kick, ban, and player management.
  • Map voting: Let players vote on the next map.
  • Player stats: Track kills, deaths, and playtime.
  • Anti-cheat: Server-side cheat detection.

4. Custom Maps

Installing Maps Manually

  1. Download the map .bsp file and any associated resources.
  2. Upload the .bsp to svencoop/maps/ via SFTP.
  3. Upload additional resources (textures, sounds) to appropriate directories.
  4. Add the map name to mapcycle.txt for rotation.
  5. Test with rcon changelevel mapname.
Tip: Custom maps may require resource downloads. Sven Co-op handles this automatically in most cases, but large maps cause longer loading times.

5. Troubleshooting

Server Crashes on Map Load

  • Check the GPanel console for error messages.
  • Try loading a different map -- the map file may be corrupted.
  • Remove recently added custom maps or plugins to test.

Players Cannot Connect

  • Verify the server is running in GPanel.
  • Check the correct IP and port from the Network tab.
  • Ensure both server and player are on the same game version.

RCON Not Working

  • Verify rcon_password is set in startup variables and server.cfg.
  • Authenticate with the correct password (case-sensitive) before sending commands.
  • Check that you type rcon_password followed by the password before using rcon commands.
  • Use the GPanel console directly as an alternative -- it does not require RCON authentication.

Custom Maps Not Loading

  • Verify the .bsp file is in the svencoop/maps/ directory.
  • Check that the map name in your command or mapcycle matches the filename exactly (case-sensitive on Linux).
  • Look for missing resource errors in the console -- you may need additional files.
