How to Add an Administrator on your ARMA 3 Server

Adding an administrator to your Arma 3 server grants the specified player the ability to perform administrative actions, modify server settings, and execute all commands on the server.

This is useful for server administrators who wish to modify a mission during a session or they wish to moderate/remove troublesome players from the server.


Adding an Admin

You can add an admin using the proper configuration property inside the Arma 3 Server Config found in your Multicraft control panel.

  1. Access your control panel and Stop your server.
  2. Navigate to Files > Config Files.
  3. Click Server Config.

  4. At the bottom of the file, Add the option admins[]={};
  5. Enter the player's SteamID64 under the admins[]={}; option.
  6. Click Save and Start your server.

Logging In as an Admin

To log in as admin without adding yourself to the server configuration, use the login command followed by your server's configured admin password.

  1. Launch Arma 3 and Connect to your server.
  2. Press the / key on your keyboard to open the chatbox.
  3. Enter the command #login yourpasswordhere to log in as an administrator.
