How to become OP (an admin) on your Hytale server

Admins on Hytale are called operators (OPs). You give someone OP using a console command. You do not need to edit any files.

 

  1. Start your server, then have the player join at least once (so the server knows who they are).
  2. Go to your Hytale server, then click the Console tab.

    Console tab in the control panel

  3. Give the player admin (OP), use their in-game name and keep in mind that they need to be logged in for you to add them as OP:
    /op add <playername>

    Example:

    /op add mouseymars
  4. To remove admin (de-op):
    /op remove <playername>

    Example:

    /op remove mouseymars

 

Optional: If you enable ALLOW_OP in the Startup tab, players can self-assign with:

/op self

Only do this if you actually want that behaviour.

That's all there is to it, after following the steps you'll be able to run commands in-game rather than just on our Hytale Server Hosting control panel. If you need assistance with becoming admin/op on your Hytale Server, please submit a ticket.
