    /FactoryGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini
  4. Set admin password
    Add the following content and set your desired password:

    ini
    [/Script/FactoryGame.FGServerSubsystem]
    mServerGameState=(ServerSessionName="Your Server Name",AdminPassword="YourAdminPassword")
    [/Script/FactoryGame.FGServerSubsystem]
    mServerGameState=(ServerSessionName="Your Server Name",AdminPassword="YourAdminPassword")
  5. Start the server
    Save the file and start your server.

Tip

Only share the admin password with trusted players. Anyone with the password can grant themselves administrator privileges.

Note

If the file already contains an mServerGameState entry, only change the AdminPassword value there. Do not add a second entry.
