TTT - How to access admin console?

[Gengar]

Hello. I'm fairly new to this and I was wondering how would I access the admin console?

In this video you can see the person use some sort of console but nowhere on the internet gives me what I'm asking for. Not the ~ or ` console, but a console for the server that lets me do admin commands.

If you have managed, you can do this by going to the "Server Control" tab, and using the rcon tool.

In-game if you hold down ~, you will open up your client console. Using rcon(remote console) you can enter commands to your server from this console. Enter this command
rcon_password yourpassword
yourpassword can be found on the "Easy Setup" tab in your control panel.

Then you can enter any command on the server by typing rcon <command>.

For example the kid in the video uses
sv_cheats 1
bot
bot
bot

For you, you can do this by typing
rcon sv_cheats 1
rcon bot
rcon bot
rcon bot
in your client console after you have entered the rcon password.


Note, you should never enable sv_cheats on a real server, it can open your server up to many exploits and cheaters.

Thank you. Is this the same console as the one I'd see on other NFO ttt servers? For example, an admin could do commands and type to other players as "Console" while not even in the server. Is this part of NFO, or some other add-on?

Yes, you can type to players in-game using the rcon tool on the control panel.
In this panel you can type
say text

and it will show up in-game as
Console: text

You can do this in your client console as well, by typing
rcon say text
(after you put in your rcon_password of course)
it will appear in-game as
Console: text

I'd create a new thread for this, but it's a simple question.

Whenever I try to access a .lua file in my server files, and it takes me to chrome, it asks for a username and password


I don't remember setting up a username

If I have where could I find it/make one?

Actually. I figured out the answer to the above post I made. However whenever I try to open the FTP explorer through IE, it says that the FTP session was terminated

Download filezilla and use that to modify server files.
