How to Kick and Ban Players on Your Unturned Server

Kick and ban players on an Unturned server

3 min read
Jul 30, 2026

You remove players from an Unturned server using commands – either in the console of the dashboard or, as an admin, directly in the in-game chat. The commands take effect immediately, no restart is needed.

Enter commands

  1. Open the console or chat
    Open the console in the dashboard of your server or – as an admin in the game – the chat.

  2. Enter the command
    In the console you enter the command without a prefix, in the in-game chat with a leading / or @:

    kick Sam/AFK
    
    /kick Sam/AFK
    

Kick a player

kick <SteamID64|PlayerName>/<Reason>

The player is disconnected from the server but can rejoin at any time. If you leave out the reason, the player is kicked with the reason "unspecified".

Ban a player

ban <SteamID64|PlayerName>/<Reason>/<Duration in seconds>

The player is kicked from the server and cannot connect again for the given duration.

Duration Value in seconds
1 hour 3600
1 day 86400
7 days 604800
30 days 2592000
365 days 31536000
