ALT+F10 Space Master Panel
VanillaThe Space Master (SM) panel opens in-game via ALT+F10 for players in the Administrators list. It provides a GUI for:
- ✓God mode & spectator camera
- ✓Spawn entities (ships, asteroids, NPCs)
- ✓Creative tools — instant build, unlimited materials
- ✓Grid management — delete, stop, power on/off
- ✓Force respawn players
- ✓Promote/demote other players to Space Master mid-session
Space Master is an in-session role separate from the Administrators list. Admins can grant SM to any connected player without editing config files.
Notes
- Vanilla commands require your SteamID64 in the
<Administrators>list in SpaceEngineers-Dedicated.cfg. - Torch commands require the Torch server framework running instead of the vanilla dedicated server executable.
- Midspace Admin mod is Workshop ID #580109067 — it extends vanilla with many extra world-setting toggles via chat.
- Commands with
<private>suffix apply only to yourself; without it they apply globally.
