How to Add an Admin to Your Core Keeper Server

You can manage admins via the Admins.json file.

Tip

Here you can find a guide on how to find your SteamID64.

Add admin

1. Stop the server
   Stop your server via the dashboard.

2. Connect via SFTP
   Connect to your server via SFTP.

3. Open Admins.json
   Open the file Admins.json at:

   /.config/unity3d/Pugstorm/CoreKeeper/DedicatedServer/Admins.json

4. Add admin
   Add one entry per admin to the adminList array. The example shows two entries – they are separated by a comma; with only one admin, the second entry including its comma is omitted:

   { "index": 1, "privileges": 2, "name": "YourCharacterName", "steamId": 76561198012345678 },
   { "index": 2, "privileges": 1, "name": "SecondCharacterName", "steamId": 76561198087654321 }

   Field	Description
   index	Sequential number
   privileges	2 = full admin, 1 = limited admin
   name	Your in-game character name
   steamId	Your SteamID64

   Tip

   Check the file with a JSON formatter like JSONLint after editing – a single missing or extra comma is enough to stop the server from applying the admin list.

5. Start the server
   Save the file and start your server.

Remove admin

To remove an admin, delete the corresponding entry from Admins.json and restart the server.
