Adding Admins

   or:Admins=(Name="Peter",UniqueId="987654321",ContactInfo="",Group="Admin")

5. Click on Save
6. Start your server

Creating Custom Admin Groups

You can also create custom admin groups.
To do this, open the Admin.ini as described above.
New groups are created using the following format:

    AdminGroups=(Name="GroupName",Commands=("Commands","that","this","group","can","use"))

For example, let’s create the group Watcher:
AdminGroups=(Name="Watcher",Commands=("say","kick","ban"))
Members of this group can, for example, send server messages and kick and ban players.

Available Commands:

• “say”
• “kick”
• “ban”
• “kill”
• “changemap”
• “nextmap”
• “terroristcount”
• “killterrorists”
• “freezeterrorists”
• “unfreezeterrorists”
• “startround”
• “endround”
• “restartround”
• “toplayarea”
• “toreadyroom”
• “resurrect”
• “editadminlist”
