How To Add Admins To Your VEIN Server

Managing player permissions—including granting administrative privileges—is essential for maintaining a healthy gaming environment.

VEIN servers use the Game.ini configuration file to manage administrators. This guide will cover becoming an Administrator, or Super Administrator.

Setting Yourself As An Admin

Note

Due to recent VEIN updates, the method for adding additional Admins may not work on the current version. This guide will be updated if there is a new official method per the Vein Official Server Documentation.

1. Access the Game Host Bros Panel and Stop your VEIN server.
2. In the sidebar, go to File Manager.
3. Navigate to /Vein/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini and look for the section named [/Script/Vein.VeinGameSession].
4. Add your SteamID64 to SuperAdminSteamIDs. For multiple admins, use a + before each additional entry:

   Game.ini

   [/Script/Vein.VeinGameSession]
   ServerName=Hosted By Game Host Bros
   ServerDescription=A server hosted by Game Host Bros
   **SuperAdminSteamIDs=76561198106341655**
   **+SuperAdminSteamIDs=76561198106341655** (Create a new line with `+SuperAdminSteamIDs=` to add additional Super Admins)
   **+SuperAdminSteamIDs=76561198106341655**
   **AdminSteamIDs=76561198106341655**
   **+AdminSteamIDs=76561198106341655** (Create a new line with `+AdminSteamIDs=` to add additional Admins)
   **+AdminSteamIDs=76561198106341655**
   HeartbeatInterval=10.0
   Password=
   bPublic=True
   BindAddr=0.0.0.0

5. Go to Console and Start your server.

Tip

Use AdminSteamIDs for regular admins and SuperAdminSteamIDs for admins with elevated permissions.
