Hytale console commands let you manage players and run server actions without editing files directly. Commands can vary by server build and installed plugins, so use /help in-game to confirm the exact commands available on your server.
Most admin commands require OP or equivalent permissions first. If a command does nothing, check your permissions before changing server files.
Getting admin permissions
| Command |
Description |
/op self |
Gives your own player admin permissions, if the server build allows self-OP. |
/op <player> |
Gives admin permissions to another player. |
/help |
Shows the command list available on your server build. |
<command> -help |
Shows subcommands and parameters for a specific command, when supported. |
Player moderation
| Command |
Description |
/kick <player> |
Kicks a player from the server. |
/ban <player> |
Bans a player from the server. |
/unban <player> |
Removes a player ban. |
/whitelist |
Manages the server whitelist. Use help on your server to check the supported add, remove, enable, disable, and list options. |
/sudo <player> <command> |
Runs a command as another player, where supported. |
Permissions and authentication
Permission and authentication commands can vary depending on the server build and plugins.
| Command |

/auth login |

Troubleshooting
- If a command is unknown, run
/help and check whether your server build supports it.
- If a command is denied, confirm that your player has OP/admin permissions.
- If you are unsure whether a command is safe, test it on a non-critical world first or submit a support ticket.
