Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note, I have never tried this, so I am not sure if/how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have looked in to the AllowPlayerToJoinNoCheck but I think this command gives the players admin privileges - which I don't want to happen. Unless I am understanding it wrong.

I know this is a year old but... NO it does NOT give admin ability. What it does is allows the steamID's listed to join without using a password and to also join if the server is full. Many hosting companies use this option for admins that want to whitelist their servers however it's a cheap easy way and not the best as it allows them to join even when the server is full (which hosts don't want since you generally pay for a set number of slots). If hosting on your own server, it's an ok method. I still prefer PlayersExclusiveJoinList however despite having to manually edit the file and restart the server (I get around this by having automatic restarts and telling the people added that they will be able to join after the next restart in X hours).
