Using Admin commands to force player to join tribe?

[magickmynd]

I have a bit of a problem. I am an admin on a locally hosted server and my character died, so I decided to make a new character then force level him to the level I was before so that I could re-spec my engrams and stat points. However I was the owner of a tribe called The Magick Tribe. When I created a new survivor I lost ownership of the tribe.

In the admin commands UI there is a command that is supposed to allow admins to force players to join a selected tribe, but I can't seem to get the commands to work.

here is what the game says

Tab > showmyadminmanager

In the list of available admin cheats there is an entry that says:

ForcePlayerToJoinTribe PlayerID[int64] TribeName[FString]

I have tried entering the command both with my survivor's in game name and with an integer string that appears when I do the listallplayers command, and I tried them in combination with the tribe name in just about every coded variation of the name I can come up with, but the command will not allow me to force rejoin my tribe.

Can anyone make sense of how the command is supposed to be formatted?

I would appreciate any assistance anyone can offer.

I did the command cheat forceplayertojointribe <id> <tribeid> in the ShowMyAdminManager by highlighting my name then execute command then Copy Player ID then type the tribe name. I dont know how it would work with a multi word tribe tho!

Yeah, that's my main problem is the multi-word tribe name. I couldn't figure it out so I just had my tribe mate who is an admin invite me back when he finally got online.

This needs a fix! So you can actually force someone to join a tribe. Because of some files being currupted some people on my server dont have access to their tribe, base or dinos. Sure I can fix the dinos and the base by clicking on each and every bloody wall that I´m the owner and then give the tribe to them. But that would take YEARS specially when people is building the way they do! Since if u miss a single structure they wont be able to build anymore since, "someone" else has a structure close to u.! FIX it DEVS PLEASE!

Try using the numeric tribe id for the tribe and not the actual name.

To locate this ID number look on your saved arks folder on the server there you will see a bunch of numeric.arktribe files. these files contain everything about the tribes on the server. they can be opened with any text editor such as notepad++ and viewed to see the data and discover which numeric.arktribe file is the tribe you need by going to the 5th line where the tribe name will be located.

once You find the writen name just use the number of the file(for example 1182934298.arktribe) as the tribe id.

Like I said currupted tribe files! The tribe data no longer exist in the data base! I check truu each and every .arktribe file.! My tribe was no longer there, same with some other people. So there was no ID for that tribe. But yet the walls, dinos and everything else said that "blabla" tribe was the owner even thought it´s not in the database.

had a similardelemma I had to use the giveme command to get every single object back to a new tribe unfortuntly, and yes works on dinos as well just takes a while, it helps if you have a friend thats in your tribe you don't mind giving admin to for a while.

Yeah I know, that´s what I´ve been forced to do aswell. But can´t continue like this, takes to much time just to fix something that should be simple and fast!

It seems that the *.arktribe files of a tribe where no one is in, will deleted from the server...
I found out another solution, which works when you are serveradmin:

The cheat command is simple: GiveToMe

You can either create your own new tribe,or join the tribe from the person who left all items.
The you go to EVERY structure parts, dinos etc and use "cheat givetome". It's a lot of work, but works for me...

Too much work when you have a massive base and a ton of dinos. Plus you are no longer in the tribe that you were in before, you have to make your own, which defeats the purpose. Plus the givetome command has flaws. For example, if you use it on a dino that was not previously tamed then yes, the dino is tamed, but you can't access it's inventory. Not sure if it works the same way for dinos that were already tamed.

We already talked about this earlier and said that it takes TO LONG! So this is not a solution! Especially not a solution we didn´t already know about! U need atleast 10admins to help 1 guy! With this method! And it will probably still take u 30-60min to help ONE guy! NOT acceptable!

Quote from devs on new 196 update!

"* Added admin command to force-join a tribe by looking at anything the tribe owns, and force-promote yourself in a tribe, and take over founder role of a tribe

cheat ForcePlayerToJoinTargetTribe PlayerID (0 for you)
(that will put you/playerID into the tribe of whatever you're pointing at, if it's a tribe structure/character)
cheat MakeTribeAdmin
cheat MakeTribeFounder
cheat RemoveTribeAdmin"

Will test this when I get home since I was able to rejoin my tribe but am no longer the tribe owner.

I have been trying this for the last hour or so none of these things works. Tried Admin Manager, tried the above cheats from the patch notes. Nothing works.

My character is broken because I added too much xp way back when you had to write in different levels in the ini. Now my character's xp is higher then the level up so it can't go backwards to the correct level up. I'm trying to create a new character and transfer everything but nothing works.

After much experimentation I have determined that this only works if there are other members of the tribe on the server. If you are trying to do it on a single player server with something like hardcore, or even regular single player, it doesn't work.

I assume this is because of the fact that if the tribe has no currently active members the tribe technically does not exist even though the structures built by that tribe do.

But I can confirm that on a private dedicated server with two tribe members in the tribe who are currently alive the "forceplayertojointargettribe" works if you go to the admin manager, click on the player id you want to add to the tribe, then click on the command and hit execute, copy player id, then execute.

You should see a message on the left that says you were added.

Then you can take it a step further and make yourself the founder with the maketribefounder cheat. I have tested this twice and it works as long as the tribe has members.

However when I went into single player and did the same thing it did not work.
