Rust Experimental Admin Help - Rust

I have just started my new Experimental server and could use some help. What I did know from Legacy is not working in my favor. I can't seem to figure out how to make myself an admin. I have used "ownerid 765XXXXXXXXX name" via the console but nothing happens. Any help would be great!

Any help would be great![/QUOTE] Use like this -> [B]ownerid 765XXXXXXXXX[/B] Then use "server.writecfg" in youe server console. Look youe server save directory, find users.cfg

[QUOTE=#Richard;46157312] Then use "server.writecfg" in youe server console. Look youe server save directory, find users.cfg[/QUOTE] Not sure what I am supposed to do here. I went with your recommendation and used... ownerid 765XXXXXXXXX server.writecfg I still have no admin abilities

there is no ownerid tag that i know of for experimental only moderatorid [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/playrust/comments/2g5s5v/rcon_command_question_in_experimental/[/url]

You should be typing it in your server window console. Otherwise just anybody could add themselves as an owner or moderator to your server.

Mine is hosted by Game Servers. Any insight on where to get a server console?

I haven't dealt with Game Servers myself so I don't know how they handle their servers, but if you log in on their site you should be able to access some sort of control panel and view a console from there. I'm afraid I can't help beyond that.

I used that previously with the Legacy version. EDIT: Found my problem, everything is good now. Thank you all for the help.

Does anyone know if there is a godmode for admins on the experimental servers yet? Would like my admins to settle disputes without getting shot in the face...

Is there any way to remove a moderator using a command as my server provider doesn't give me access to the user config file.
