How to Kick and Ban Players on Your Frozen Flame Server

On a Frozen Flame server you remove players through RCON. No command for kicking or banning players directly inside the game is documented.

Note

See Add Admin for how to connect via RCON. Remember that the password has to be entered in the format admin:<RCON password>.

Kick or ban a player

1. Connect via RCON
   Connect to your server with an RCON client – see Add Admin.

2. Find the PlayerID
   List the connected players together with their IDs:

   Admin_GetOnlinePlayers

   Players who are currently offline can be found through the stored profiles:

   Admin_ListUserProfiles

3. Run the command
   Run the desired command with the PlayerID, for example:

   Admin_KickPlayer 123456789 RuleBreaking

Note

The angle brackets in the commands below are placeholders only – do not type them.

Kick a player

Admin_KickPlayer <PlayerID> <Reason>

The player is disconnected from the server but can rejoin at any time.

Ban a player

Admin_Ban <PlayerID> <Seconds> <Reason>

The duration of the ban is given in seconds. Admin_Ban 123456789 3600 Griefing therefore bans the player for one hour.

Warning

Frozen Flame has no documented value for a permanent ban. Values such as 0 or -1 are not documented and may behave unexpectedly. If you want to ban a player indefinitely, enter a correspondingly large number of seconds instead – for example 31536000 for one year.

Lift a ban

Admin_Unban <PlayerID>

Note

No file listing banned players is documented. Bans are therefore always lifted through RCON – write down the PlayerID before you ban someone.

Mute a player in the chat

Admin_Chatban <PlayerID> <Seconds> <Reason>

Admin_ChatUnban <PlayerID>

Here as well the duration is given in seconds.

Remove a profile

Admin_RemoveUserProfile <PlayerID>

Admin_RemoveProfile <PlayerID>

Important

Admin_RemoveProfile removes the player including their save data – their progress on your server is gone. Admin_RemoveUserProfile only removes the profile. Create a backup beforehand if you are unsure.
