Soldat 2 has two ways to grant admin rights: a permanent admin via PlayFab ID and an RCON password that lets any number of players log in as admin in the game. There is no file-based admin list.
Set the permanent admin via PlayFab ID
Soldat 2 identifies players by their PlayFab ID, a 16-character hexadecimal string such as 9FD985AB3FE67850. A Steam ID is not used here.
