Rust Admin Commands Cheat Sheet

How to Use Admin Commands

Admin commands can be run from:

• The server console in your game panel
• An RCON tool like BattleMetrics or RustAdmin (see our RCON guide)
• In-game by pressing F1 (you must be an owner or moderator)

Note: Some commands are owner-only. Moderators have restricted access.

Player Management

• ban "player" "reason" — Ban a player
• unban 76561198012345678 — Unban by SteamID64
• kick "player" "reason" — Kick a player
• mute "player" — Mute a player in chat
• unmute "player" — Unmute a player
• status — Show online players with SteamIDs and ping

Teleportation

• teleport "player1" "player2" — Teleport player1 to player2
• teleportpos x y z — Teleport yourself to coordinates

Items and Entities

• inventory.give "item" amount — Give items to yourself
• inventory.giveall "item" amount — Give items to all players
• spawn "entity" — Spawn an entity at your position

Server Management

• server.save — Manually save the server
• server.writecfg — Save server configuration (admin lists, bans)
• quit — Graceful server shutdown
• serverinfo — Server status (FPS, entity count, uptime)

Environment

• weather.fog 0 — Clear fog (0–1)
• weather.rain 0 — Stop rain (0–1)
• weather.clouds 0 — Clear clouds (0–1)
• env.time 12 — Set time of day (0–24)

Tips

• You can use partial player names — the server will try to match
• SteamID64 is more reliable than player names (names can be changed)
• Always run server.writecfg after any configuration change to persist it
