CONFIGURATION OF THE SERVER
After the initial start of the server, the necessary files for the configuration of the server will be generated, those files include all the .ini files you are able to edit.
To access those files, you will need to navigate to the “Saved - Config - WindowsServer”
“...\SCUM Server\SCUM\Saved\Config\WindowsServer”
Let’s dive a bit deeper into what file does what here:
AdminUsers.ini
Placing SteamIDs into this folder will give players admin rights, they will be able to execute basic commands. It’s also possible to give players access to additional commands by placing additional arguments in the brackets next to their SteamID.
Accessible arguments:
[SetGodMode]
Gives player access to the “#SetGodMode True/False” command, which enables or disables instant building.
[RestartServer]
Gives player access to the “#RestartServer pretty please” command, which will initiate a shutdown sequence of the server.
Example of adding a user to AdminUsers.ini
76561199637135087 <- admin commands
76561199637135087[SetGodMode] <- admin commands + setgodmode
76561199637135087[SetGodMode, RestartServer] admin commands + setgodmode + restartserver pretty please
BannedUsers.ini
All players who are banned from your server will end up in this file, you are also able to place SteamIDs of the users manually into this file.
EconomyOverride.json
In this file, you are able to adjust the prices of items and services at the traders in safe zones. There are a few examples on how this is done already in the file, all you need to do is replace the name of the item or the service that you want to adjust, and place it at the corresponding trader.
