Giving admin access

First time PC gamer.

All these forums talk about the server hoster giving admin permissions to a player temp to fix issues like drone disappearing. But it's kinda hard to understand. 

We did the ipl thing to try to give me admin permissions and my steam ID. 

We may be doing things wrong. As I'm not getting anywhere and just getting errors.

Can someone please dumb this down. I'm not tech ignorant but a easier level of explanation would be helpful. 

I know there's a way to do stuff with the xml file too and he said it has me in there with permission level 0...

TIA.

Hi, so you can do this two ways: First is easiest, log in to the server with an admin-granted account and enter this into the console window (F1)

admin add "jugginator" 0


Replace jugginator with the name of the player, quotes are optional but if there are spaces in the name, use the quotes. 

Or, go into serveradmin.xml located in the save folder and go down to the admin section. There's a template you can copy and paste, just add the info there.
