    Gameservers are not the best I recommend looking around for something better here is one you can look at RUST Experimental Server Hosting - Host Havoc
    or
    Rent or Buy RUST Server Hosting - Streamline Servers

    Having an issue with ADMIN rights. Set the ownerid, logged in have admin rights however user is still shown as player (blue instead of green) and cant use commands such as noclip. Before on connection listed "auth level 2" now it doesnt say anything in console when connecting. Not sure what happened? I removed and added user as owner multiple times now with no luck. In game can access items as ADMIN, and when looking at users.cfg listed as owner. Something break? Is there a separate process for setting up the auth level permissions? Thx

    Did the player disconnect and reconnect?

    Are you sure the Steam ID is correct?

    Then your users.cfg is likely read-only, because that hasn't changed in Rust.

    Check your users.cfg file properties to see if it is read-only.

    Have you checked to see if the file has the ID you added through the console?

    Name and reason are optional, so those shouldn't be needed. If no name is given, "unnamed" is used, and if no reason is given, "no reason" is used.

    The point is that making someone spend more time to do more for the sake of "I do it that way" is not a fix. ;) The steps the user took already handled what you posted, you just added more unnecessary parts to it. I know you're just trying to help, and I'm just trying to help you and save users time.

    Have you tried adding to the users.cfg manually and then using server.readcfg? You can also try editing it manually while the server is offline, that'd be the same as using server.readcfg.
