No admin access 42.13.2

[junior moth]

I've had it on the character in the past. Tried giving it to myself again but it's not giving me access in game.

To add, it seems my admin character still has some of the admin powers, im invisble, unlimited carry, no clip works.

no admin tag, no fast movement.

When you used /setaccesslevel recently, you did so through your server's console, right?

[junior moth]

yes

wierdly I also cannot access the server options from the client button, normally I can.

[silk rose]

Huh... That is strange.

When open=false and authorised via SteamID whitelist it'll just ignore the role in the database, seems like the only workaround for now is open=true. To be fair I didn't try very hard.

[silk rose]

@granite latch, the source code you mentioned that you checked is referring to the game's Java code, right? Or is it a lua you found?

[granite latch]

Yeah the decompiled source

I'm able to get admin tools with public=false and open=false if I setaccesslevel admin admin while logged in (the first "admin" is the username)

it only lasts until I re-log, then have to do it again

[junior moth]

that isnt working for me.

[loud vault]

fwiw, I'm using the actual "admin" account (with password set via commandline), and issuing the setaccesslevel command over RCON (because I don't have console access)

but like I said, it only works if I'm already logged in on that account when I issue the command, and it only lasts until log-out

[junior moth]

well idk what changed but i just logged back in and tried again was wable to give it to my character.

from the console

[junior moth]

can confirm it doesnt stay on relog. Playable though.

Feeling this, had to implement a stop gap feature with a discord bot that RCONs the command through an embed. Not my favorite thing but not unplayable.

If it is a new bug, can you forward it to the forums?

any workarounds for this? I'm just using the host function via the main screen, but I cannot access admin panel. the /setaccesslevel command says i've been made admin, but no change, even after re start

[junior moth]

Log in with the character and the from the console type

setaccesslevel "username" admin

You will have to redo this each time when you log in until they fix it.

[wintry gazelle]

as i said, that literally does not work

[junior moth]

I suggest you try again. Even though you're already an admin on that character and you type that command you'll get the admin privs but you have to be logged in first. You'll see the admin thing pop up on the left.

It didnt work for me the first time or two I tried which is why I am the one who started this thread. I can take screenshots right now to show you it does work.

Also if you're importing a save from 42.13.1 to 13.2 that could also be your issue.

[wintry gazelle]

hmm, i appreciate the input, but I'm not sure what the issue is truly. I'm running modded, and it's a new save on .2. I've tried inputting the command multiple times,, and for my friends that are on the server. it acts as though nothing has changed despite returning success

[junior moth]

for yourself? no offense but do your friends know what they're looking for to confirm that have admin privs? hahah

Posting screenshots of what the console says might help.

also a screenshot of their screen after you sent the command

[wintry gazelle]

Thanks for your help. I've figured out the issue. For anyone else that has special characters in their steam name: you have to copy/paste your name into the console for the command to recognize it as you.
