Become admin on own DS
« on: January 02, 2006, 12:29:25 PM »
Hi
I got a little dedicated server with ULX installed. I put myself into the users.lua, so I can be admin and eg. kick users with the ulx-mod.
My problem is, that the server doesn't recognize me as an admin.
(I read about the rcon way, but I'm looking for another method!)

I would like to use the admin menues of mods and so on.
So, is there a way to tell the server, that user XY should be admin? Maybe with ULX-mod?
(As far as ulx-mod IS some kind of admin for the server, there should be a way?)

Thx

Type 'status' in console and use the ID that comes from that in the config.

I added my Steam ID to the ulx_users.lua like this:

addUser("STEAM_0:1:4976339", "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuz")

Yet, it doesnt work. My dedicated server doesnt recognize me as admin.

make sure:
  • the file is in neat order (should have multiple lines, not look like one giant block of text, if it is, post back)
  • there is no '--' before the line you have added your steamid to
