ADMIN Unofficial: Banning Offline Players? *Due to hacking*

[Kanad]

Through lessons learned the hard way, I didn't have Battleye on my personal server and a hacker got on and destroyed everything.

They did so while I was at work and are not online while I am off. How can I ban this person from my server to ensure they do not ruin the entire servers fun?

open console, type in this
ban "steamid"

Haha thank you, but I suppose I didnt clarify, how do I get their steam id while they're not in my server?

I don't think you can. I think you can only check if they're online. Not 100% sure, but I didn't see a command for it

Install this tool on your server.

It'll log that kind of info for you, you can search them by character name, steam name, or tribe name. It has their player IDs and steam IDs.

use rcon on your server. you can see who was online and ban them even if they are offline.
