Make a Project Zomboid server private or whitelisted

The settings

• Password (Password): asked for when a player joins.
• Open (Open): on, anyone can create an account; off, only existing accounts can join.
• Public (Public): shows the server in the in-game list.
• Max Accounts Per User (MaxAccountsPerUser): limits accounts per Steam user.
• Drop Off White List After Death (DropOffWhiteListAfterDeath): removes an account when its character dies, on servers with Open off.

Add players to a whitelist

1. Leave Open on while your friends join once, so their accounts are made.
2. Turn Open off and restart the server.
3. For a new player later, an admin adds them in game with /adduser "name" "password".

Remove someone

Ban them from the Players page or Discord.
