Star Rupture Admin Commands and Server Controls
The current official dedicated-server article explains installation and launch, but it does not publish a complete command list. A long table of /kick, /ban, /tp, or /save examples is therefore unsafe: those commands may belong to another game or an older experiment.
What is safe to claim
- The dedicated-server feature is experimental.
- The current package or manager is the source of truth for exposed admin controls.
- Administrative changes should be tested privately and recorded with the build.
Admin workflow without invented syntax
- Set a private password and restrict access before testing.
- Use the current manager or server console to identify the available control surface.
- Grant the smallest permission that lets a helper do their job.
- Test a harmless operation with a second account.
- Record the exact command or UI action and server build.
- Back up the world before destructive actions or experiments.
Passwords are set in the game rather than by a command: from the main menu choose Manage Server, enter the server's address and set the admin and join passwords when asked, and the server keeps them encrypted in Password.json and PlayerPassword.json in its install folder (observed on dedicated-server build 25336501, 2026-09-24).
Moderation checklist
| Need | First response |
|---|---|
| Keep strangers out | Use the current access/password controls; do not publish the endpoint. |
| Remove a disruptive player | Use the control exposed by the current manager/console and test reconnect. |
| Change world rules | Back up, change one supported setting, restart, and test. |
| Recover after a crash | Capture logs, confirm the selected save, and restore only after checking the active path. |
Why copied command lists fail
Unverified lists often assume a different executable, config file, or server framework. If a command is not shown by the current package, manager, or an official article, label it unconfirmed rather than presenting it as a supported Star Rupture API.
