The Isle admin questions
How do I add myself as server admin on The Isle?
Stop the server, open Configuration Files in the game panel, edit Game.ini with the Text Editor and add AdminsSteamIDs= followed by your 64-bit Steam ID. Save the file and start the server.
How do I add another admin?
Add a separate AdminsSteamIDs= line with the other player's 64-bit Steam ID, save Game.ini and restart the server.
I added my ID but I'm not admin. What now?
Check that you edited the file while the server was stopped, that the ID is your 17-digit 64-bit Steam ID with no spaces, and that you saved before starting the server.
