Moderators, Password and Rules

A dedicated server has no console of its own: the people you trust run it from inside the game.

Moderators

Add a driver's SteamID64 to moderator_list in server_config.sii; SCS notes that moderators cannot be promoted while the session runs, so it takes a restart. Moderators kick and ban from the player list, and use three chat commands: /set_time HH:MM, /set_rain_factor (0 to 1) and /help.

On Flux: Moderators in Deployment Settings, or the list in the Convoy Settings tab, which restarts the server for you. Both lists count: everyone on either is a moderator.

Password

A password keeps the convoy to people you give it to. On Flux it is set in the Convoy Settings tab and kept on the server, never in the public app listing.
