So we have around a total of 6 admins in the server. The first 3 that were added immediately have powers that work fine. The ones added more recently like in the last week or so can't use all of the powers. I've tried setting access level in the database, doing it through player stats, and using the command console. It has the red admin above their heads, but the new admins can't access most of the cheats in the admin panel, like for example doesn't matter what we do they are always visible to zombies and out of god mode.
#adding admins not working correctly

Do you have any mods enabled on the server?
gray valley
I do. Could a mod be causing an issue for just newly added admins? If so I'll see about removing the most recently added ones and going from there

Which command are you using to give them admin powers?
And did you make sure the command is case sensitive
gray valley
I tried all three ways. Through stata panel, console command, and through database.
They get admin above head just the powers aren't working correctly.
Not even if I god mode them from the player menu
But completely working for the first 3 admin

Try doing this, first disable the powers again
setaccesslevel "Ace Juan" none
Then
setaccesslevel "Ace Juan" admin
The username has to be typed exactly like that in ""
gray valley
Ok, I can do it now but we won't be able to test it until later in the day. Is it alright if I update then?
hushed rose
Sure
gray valley
It did not work
hushed rose
Alright, which exact cheats are inaccessible..?
Can they change server settings, teleport?
gray valley
They can. They basically can't use most of the stuff in the admin panel. It's easier to say what they can use. Which is like the brush tool and the items list spawner. But yeah timed action instant, carpentry cheat, god mode, invisibility, none of it's working.
hushed rose
What are the usernames of all the admins?
Just to see if there is a correlation with that
gray valley
Grim
Cassi
SOA
Casper
Mrdragoon
Ace Juan
hushed rose
So the admin powers dont work for all of those?
gray valley
Oh the ones it doesn't work for are
Casper
Mrdragoon
Ace Juan
hushed rose
Hm alright that is bizzare... are any of them in Debug mode perhaps?
And have they tried using the /invisible command instead of the Admin menu?
Or /godmode
gray valley
We will try that next. definitely not in debug
gray valley
Did not work.
hushed rose
So just to reiterate, they are able to spawn anything, teleport around and change peoples stats, ban people and so on
But are unable to affect their own character such as godmode and so on
What happens if you put godmode on them?
Or if they put godmode on others
Since so far it sounds like their character itself is bugged
For example from mods, do you have any mods that add traits?
gray valley
Yep everything but using the stuff that affects them in the admin panel. If I god mode or make them invisible it doesn't work either. We do yes, I think just immersive medicine which has been there from the start. I'm just baffled that a mod would only break new accounts that get admin lol. The mod has been in since we started the save.
hushed rose
Well as mentioned, I would recommend doing a test without that mod for example, since so far thats the only lead.
