Sven Co-op marks server administrators with an icon on the scoreboard, and plugins can check for admin status. Admins on your Sven Co-op server are listed by Steam ID in admins.txt.
Finding a Steam ID
Sven Co-op uses the STEAM_0:X:XXXXXXXX Steam ID format. You can find any player's Steam ID by pasting their Steam profile link into steamid.io.
Adding Admins With admins.txt
- 1Log in to Bropanel and
Stopyour server. - 2In the sidebar, go to
Files. - 3Open
svencoop/admins.txt. If the file doesn't exist, create it in thesvencoopfolder. - 4Add each admin's Steam ID on its own line. You can add a note after the ID to remember who it is:
// Owners *STEAM_0:1:12345678 # Your name // Administrators STEAM_0:0:87654321 # Friend - 5Save the file and start your server.
Putting * in front of a Steam ID marks that player as a server owner, which shows a tinted icon on the scoreboard. Owners have the same powers as admins.
Admin-Only Cheats
Built-in cheat commands are normally blocked on internet servers with more than 3 player slots. Adding this line to svencoop/server.cfg lets only your admins use cheats, whatever your player count:
