You can remove disruptive players either through the in-game Remote Admin panel or with commands – and the commands also work directly in the console of the dashboard when prefixed with /.
Prerequisite: a rank with admin rights
Kicking and banning requires a rank with moderation rights (e.g. moderator, admin or owner). The assign ranks guide shows you how to grant a rank to yourself or your team.
Option 1: The in-game Remote Admin panel
-
Open the Remote Admin panel
Press the M key in-game to open the Remote Admin panel. -
Select a player
In the left column labeled Players, select the player you want to kick or ban. -
Kick or ban the player
Choose the desired action: for a kick you can optionally provide a reason, for a ban you additionally set the duration. Confirm the action afterwards.
Option 2: Commands
Enter the following commands into the command line of the Remote Admin panel.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
kick <player> <reason> |
Removes a player from the server |
ban <player> <duration> <reason> |
Bans a connected player |
offlineban <SteamID64> <duration> <reason> |
Bans a player who is not currently connected (short form: oban) |
unban id <SteamID64> |
Lifts a ban by SteamID64 |
unban ip <IP address> |

banlist |

As <player> you can use the player name, the player ID from the player list of the Remote Admin panel, or the SteamID64 prefixed with @. You can find a player's SteamID64 using the linked guide.
Ban duration
The duration is a number in minutes. You can also set the unit explicitly with the suffixes m (minutes), h (hours) and d (days). A duration of 0 creates a permanent ban.
