Icarus Admin Command Reference

⚠️

Admin authentication does NOT persist between sessions.

You must run /AdminLogin <password> every time you connect — even as server owner. Failing to do this means all admin commands will be silently ignored.

Prefix with / when typed in-game chat. In the server console, omit the / prefix.
