How to make yourself Admin on your new The Forest server

To become an admin on your server, you need to create a admin password in your properties file.

Head over to the Startup Tab in the control panel and find the "Admin Password" box and change this to your desired password.

Now restart the server. The admin password should now be set.

Next load up your game and then when you go to join a server you will see a Admin password field. Put the correct password there and then you will have admin.

Note: Admin Commands can be used with the in-game chat by pressing Enter Key.
