Player Role Config

Control who can access your Ark Survival Ascended server by managing role-based lists directly in Auto Config.

  • Game Servers → Your Game Server Name → Auto Config → Player Role Settings
  • Click Add to search recent players or Add by ID to paste an EOS ID manually.
  • Anyone in this list receives admin privileges when they join the server.

Administrators panel with Add and Add by ID buttons

  • Toggle Exclusive mode to limit logins to the listed players only.
  • Use Add or Add by ID to populate the list.

Exclusive Players panel with Exclusive mode toggle highlighted

  • Add players here for priority access when the server is full.
  • Entries can be added via search or EOS ID, just like the other panels.

Players Join No Check panel with Add options

  • Maintain your ban list without editing files. Remove an entry to unban.

Banned Players panel with Add and Add by ID buttons

  • The Add button opens a searchable list of known players. Use it to avoid typing EOS IDs when possible.
  • Use Add by ID when the player has not yet joined any server you manage.
  • Lists save automatically as soon as you change them; restart the server so updates apply consistently.
