How to log in as admin to server from game was created by toadlife
HI all. I set up dedicated serve so my son and I can play but have one problem; I cannot for the life of me figure out how to log into the server as admin from the game. I'm using the server launcher to launch the server and specificy the "Admin Login" and "Admin Password" in the options, but can not figure out what command to use to log in once I'm in the game. I've tried adminlogin username and then adminpass password, and other combinations, like adminlogin username password, but no matter what, I can never get logged in. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Hey pblair, welcome here
Well, i guess the only wrong thing you did is asking about this problem in the middle of the night...
No worries, i'm just joking, i'm pretty sure that tomorrow you'll get help by our best technical specialists here ( not me, i'm not a technical specialist, i'm just a joker ^^)

Hey pblair and welcome,
Now if you are using HD2 Server Launcer you define a password as shown in attached picture.
Now anyone who joins the server can login as admin typing adminlogin banana in console
The command adminpass sets up a complete new password, e.g adminpass orange
Now players can login as admin with adminlogin orange

Thanks for the reply. I figured it out. It's not in the password field of the server launcher - that's the password to join the server. It was in the "Admin password" box.
Once I defined my password in that box and typed 'adminpass password'
I was confused by the Admin Login box. I though you had to define an admin username along with the admin password in order to login as admin in the game. Anyone know the purpose of "Admin Login" box in the server launcher?

Oh dear should not post after midnight.. 
Forget the picture, it shows the server password instead of admin.
Yes, adminpass defines your password.
Don't know why there's a adminlogin field. Keep it empty but it should have no effect anyway.
