What Is a Sub-User?

So what is a sub-user? A sub-user is a way of giving access to other administrators who may be helping you with your server. This can also include developers and anyone else whom you may think needs access to control your server. Within our game panel for our game server hosting services, you can manage certain permissions for your sub-users. If you feel you only want an individual to be able to start/stop the server, you can do that! There’s also a ton more permissions you can either grant or not.

Why Would a Sub-User Benefit Your Server?

A sub-user can greatly benefit you and your server. For example, if you have a developer who needs to go in and upload files or maybe even edit some files, you can specifically set it so that they can do this without having to access the entire panel. There are many options to configure for each sub-user, which makes it great for server owners using game server hosting to manage their team.

How to Add a Sub-User

To add a sub-user, make sure you are logged into your game panel account and navigate to the panel.

  1. Navigate to your game panel and select your server.
  2. Once at your server’s console, go to the Users tab. You may need to scroll the navigation bar to the right.
