    Hello I am new. This game is great!

    I am currently using gshost.us to host my servers.

    Is it possible to log into the game as an admin with the ability to ban or do super user things in game?

    Of course there is.

    If you are renting the server from them you also have an access to your server files through ftp. You can download one of many FTP clients available and set it up with informations given on gshost.us website, at server section. Now, location which is your main target is: KAG/Security. You can find there - or you will probably have to create - seclevs.cfg (there are saved informations about all admin levels available) and other configs which contains information about what kind of abilities will have specific group and who will have it. You can assign people to these configs, depending on your needs.

    Quick tutorial, find in location mentioned above file superadmin.cfg.example, rename it to superadmin.cfg (do it with other cfgs too if needed), edit line 'users' with your ingame username, like:

    Code:
    name = Super Admin
users = MDN;
roles = rcon;
commands = ALL;
features = always_change_team; ban_immunity; editor; invincible; freeze_immunity; ignore_immunity; join_full; kick_immunity; map_vote; mark_any_team; mark_player; mute_immunity; name_mouseover; pingkick_immunity; silent_rcon; skip_votewait; spectator; view_collapses; view_console; view_rcon;
assign = admin; vip; normal; premium;
    Next, file seclevs.cfg - if doesn't exist should be created at KAG/Security folder and contain following:
    levels_active = 1
    levels_files = Security/superadmin.cfg; Security/admin.cfg; Security/noadmin.cfg; Security/guard.cfg; Security/vip.cfg; Security/premium.cfg; Security/normal.cfg;

    Which define what kind of levels will get loaded with the server on starting.

    Last thing is editing autoconfig.cfg in main server directory and providing correct seclevs.cfg file path, so for this example this line should look like:
    security_seclevs = ../Security/seclevs.cfg

    Save and restart server. You should be an admin ingame from now.

    Just to add on. Sometimes this doesn't work for some reason... I had my server and i tryed this but i wasn't admin. If you don't become admin then log in with the server rcon password.

    Ty for the quick reply, it still doesn't work :D:D:D
    I will write you what I did:

    ---at security/seclevs.cfg

    levels_active = 1
    levels_files = Security/superadmin.cfg;

    ---superadmin.cfg

    name = Super Admin users = Tsilliev; roles = rcon; commands = ALL; features = always_change_team; ban_immunity; editor; invincible; freeze_immunity; ignore_immunity; join_full; kick_immunity; map_vote; mark_any_team; mark_player; mute_immunity; name_mouseover; pingkick_immunity; silent_rcon; skip_votewait; spectator; view_collapses; view_console; view_rcon; assign = admin; vip; normal; premium;

    ---autoconfig.cfg

    rcon = no password


    And also I join my server from multipalyer-connect to 127.0.0.1:50301 and I have my head the default head not the skeleton head that I am usually using.
    A month ago, I could join my server and I could see my name red ie being admin and I could use ! commands in the chat, and I could use /rcon /sv_register or others from the console ie home button, but now my name is white.
    Now I can finally host, before I had problems, where people cannot see my server but now it is fixed, instead of that I cannot be admin so I cannot spawn the tents of the other teams, its like the universe is telling me not to host RP server atm.

    Sorry. Had to walk to school but im here now :D

    Ok In Auto Config
    Set your Rcon password to like 123
    and then log on to your server using Connect To...
    Then press Home key on your Keyboard
    Then type "/Rcon /Login 123"
    And then switch teams/suicide
    Then check if your name is red/orange

    :)

    That is strange, you would have needed to restart the server for the seclevs to actually start working, maybe that's what you did as you copied over a fresh copy of KAG?

    Basically there are three steps to seclevs.

    1) the Securitysetup.cfg file (to specify locations of seclevs, Blacklist and whitelist)
    2) the seclevs.cfg file (to include all your seclevs)
    3) Each individual seclev, such as Admin, Guard, Normal.

    Once they're configured, if your server is already up, you need to restart the server for them to start working (if it is up at the time you configure your seclevs). If you put yourself in the SuperAdmin seclev, then you shouldn't have to login to rcon, to administrate the server.

    For more details you can follow the seclev guide here: https://wiki.kag2d.com/wiki/Server#Security_Levels

    Well what I do is I /rcon /login pass, then /rcon /reloadseclevs and then my name is red and I am admin although I cannot use !commands, I need to /rcon /sv_test 1 but then others can use commands too, I use that to set up tents in the beginning of the game.
