Set a Longvinter administrator using the right account ID

The current template labels its administrator field Admin EOS Account ID. Although the config key is named AdminSteamID, the field’s required account identity should not be guessed from that older key name.

Make the change

  1. Check the identity format requested by the installed template and Longvinter’s current server instructions.
  2. Stop the server and back up its Game.ini.
  3. Enter the intended administrator’s EOS account ID in Admin EOS Account ID, following the field’s format.
  4. Keep the server name, save data and gameplay rules unchanged while testing access.
  5. Start and reconnect with the matching game account to confirm administrator controls.
Controls used in this task
Panel fieldWhat to keep in mind
Server NameThe name players see when looking for the session. Use a distinctive name so it is easy to distinguish from other servers. Up to 64 characters.

Check the result

If access fails, verify the account ID rather than trying a display name or sharing your panel password. Keep the previous config so you can undo the administrator change cleanly.
