The tShock admin group holds a variety of permissions which gives administrators access to almost all in-game tShock commands. While logged in as a tShock owner, it is possible to create new users with Admin access or migrate existing users to the admin group.
Important
To manage users and user groups, you must first install and setup tShock by following this article.
# Adding a New Admin User
While logged in as a tShock owner, create a new user with admin permission using a chat command.
Alternatively, you can enter these commands from your server's console page. If you use commands from the console, you do not need to include the /sudo part of the command.
- Type the command
/sudo /user add <USERNAME> <PASSWORD> admin.
- Instruct the user to type the command
/login <USERNAME> <PASSWORD>.
# Changing an Existing User's Group to Admin

Alternatively, you can enter these commands from your server's console page. If you use commands from the console, you do not need to include the /sudo part of the command.
