Give staff Remote Admin roles on an SCP: Secret Laboratory server

Remote Admin permissions are stored in config_remoteadmin.txt for the server’s specific port. Editing the server configuration file or a different port directory will not update this instance.

Make the change

  1. Stop the server and back up its .config/SCP Secret Laboratory configuration directory.
  2. Find config/<assigned-port>/config_remoteadmin.txt under that directory.
  3. Follow the current Northwood role-assignment format to map the intended account identity to a defined role.
  4. Keep the existing role definitions and give each staff member only the permissions needed.
  5. Start, reconnect with the intended account and test Remote Admin access.

Check the result

If the role is missing, check both the account identity and the active port directory. Keep administrator configuration private and do not post the full file in a public support channel.

This template launches LocalAdmin using the assigned port. Gameplay and Remote Admin config files are managed per port, not through a generic server-name variable.
