How To Turn On Cheats On Your DDNet Server

Cheats turn your server into a test server, where admins can use cheat commands such as super to fly through a map or tele to teleport. It's useful for testing maps you made. Here's how to turn it on.

Turning On Cheats

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and select your server.
  2. 2
    In the sidebar, go to Settings.
  3. 3
    Under Gameplay, edit Cheats and turn it on.
  4. 4
    Click Save & Restart to apply your changes.

Your server shows as a test server in the server browser while cheats are on. Turn Cheats off again to go back to normal races.

Using Cheat Commands

Cheat commands run in the remote console, so you need your RCON Password or Moderator Password:

  1. 1
    Join your server and press F2 to open the remote console.
  2. 2
    Type your password and press Enter.
  3. 3
    Type a cheat command, for example super, tele or weapons, then press Enter.

See RCON to set your passwords.

Tip

Players don't need cheats to practice. Typing /practice in chat turns on practice mode for their own team's run, though that run won't count for ranks.
