Common server commands

Run these in the server console or an RCON client, not directly in F1. Replace <STEAM64_ID> with the player’s ID before running a command.

List connected players

Shows player names, Steam64 IDs, connection times and network information.

global.status

The output includes player IP addresses. Do not publish it unredacted.

Save the world now

Writes the current world and player save without stopping the server.

server.save

This is not an off-server backup and does not save plugin configuration files.

Disconnect one player

Disconnects the connected player and displays the reason. It does not ban them.

global.kick <STEAM64_ID> "Rule violation"

Check the Steam64 ID; the player can reconnect afterwards.

Ban a Steam account

Adds a ban by Steam64 ID, including when that player is offline.

global.banid <STEAM64_ID> "Player name" "Rule violation"

Permanent ban: verify the account. Run server.writecfg afterwards to persist it.

Remove a ban

Removes this Steam64 ID from the server’s ban list.

global.unban <STEAM64_ID>

Run server.writecfg afterwards to persist the updated ban list.

Grant owner access

Gives this account Rust auth level 2 and saves the owner entry.

global.ownerid <STEAM64_ID>

Only for trusted administrators. A player issuing it needs auth level 2.

Revoke owner access

Removes and saves the owner entry; a connected player loses their admin flag.

global.removeowner <STEAM64_ID>

Do not remove your only owner unless you still have server-console access.

Persist server settings

Writes supported console settings to cfg/serverauto.cfg and saves the user/ban list.

server.writecfg

This writes current values; it does not export Oxide or Carbon plugin JSON files.
