Post Scriptum / Squad 44 Admin Management

Post Scriptum / Squad 44 Admin Management
Post Scriptum (Squad 44) uses the same Unreal Engine admin system as Squad. Admin permissions are managed in:
PostScriptum/ServerConfig/Admins.cfg
The system works on named groups: you define groups with specific permissions, then assign Steam64 IDs to those groups.
Finding a Player's Steam64 ID
- Open the player's Steam profile in a browser.
- Right-click → View Page Source, then search for
steamid. - Or use steamid.io — paste the profile URL to find the Steam64 ID.
Steam64 IDs look like: 76561198012345678
