dm denied
On my private server, have my SteamID 64 set as the admin (lvl1/1000) and the DM code to 2, but every time I try it in the command line, it says "Denying command". My son's minibike went into the terrain at the traders and I need to no-clip to get it out, since I can't break the ground blocks around the traders...Did I misss something?

I don't know how to set admin permissions on servers but:

Can you still see and interact with the minibike?

The last time I got my bike stuck in a trader wall what I did was: wait until just before closing. Mount the bike (E) and stay on the bike until they close.

If done correctly you will be teleported out (with the bike) when they close for the night

This thread looks promising, you might find the answer here:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/251570/discussions/0/540744475365498000/

And there's this guide:

Did you add yourself to the XML file while the server was offline?

That's the one I was following, and yeah server is offline while editing.


<adminTools>
<admins>
<admin steamID="*****************" permission_level="1" />
<admin steamID="*****************" permission_level="1" />
</admins>


<permissions>
<permission cmd="lp" permission_level="5" />
<permission cmd="kick" permission_level="5" />
<permission cmd="ban" permission_level="3" />
<permission cmd="sg" permission_level="3" />
<permission cmd="se" permission_level="3" />
<permission cmd="st" permission_level="3" />
<permission cmd="dm" permission_level="2" />
</permissions>


That's how it looks (asterisks are actually our ID's), and still not behaving, keep getting the Denied command for client SoulzBaen...

ID's were typed, not copy/paste, etc. but still giving me fits
SoulzBaen Jul 22, 2017 @ 6:18pm 
Denying command 'dm' from client SoulzBaen is all I get for most other commands, there are a few that work, but that's the one I need.

in short, if i read it correctly, it sounds like you should have your steamid permission level set to (0 or 1) that would allow you to use any comand rated beyond 1.
Ie. server owner would have permission 0
admins would be further along 1 or higher (up to some arbitrary number limit for admin permissions)
1000 would be general users ( furthest along the number chain)

that's my take on it.

edit; oh, and you've removed the <!--, and --> from either side of the command line in your file, correct?

I would be just as happy to remove the trader protection alltogether, or atleast set the radius to stop at the walls

Yup, and that's what it's been set to all along, but it just doesn't seem to be reading the serveradmin.xml

Also denying my wife (other admin)
Kunovega Jul 22, 2017 @ 6:21pm 
Try taking the server offline and giving yourself permission level 0 instead of 1 ?

If that doesn't help, hopefully someone else will have an idea, this is outside of my experience

log into the console and use add admin. you can then remove admin. Or personally, i'd pull aprt the minibike and rebuild it.

Can't reach the minibike as it's inside/under the protected blocks at the trader. Need debug to god and noclip in to get it out.

Admin Add and all other commands won't work, says Denied, for some reason it won't take what's in the serveradmin.xml

Here's the file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<whitelist>
<!-- <whitelisted steamID="" permission_level="" /> -->

Not sure where the file is supposed to be at, either the main file under SteamLibrary or in the C:\users\user\documents\7DtD....*note* it hasn't worked in either place as of yet*
