CSGO How to become admin with Sourcemod

To become an admin, you first need your SteamID.
You can easily obtain it from here: steamid.io.

Basic Mode

In Basic Mode, you enter the SteamID in the Add-Ons section in the corresponding field.
You can choose any name, as it is only for identification purposes.
Under Permissions, you can configure what actions the admin is allowed to perform on the server.
If a permission is highlighted in blue, it means it is active.

Advanced Mode

In Advanced Mode, you can add admins either in the admins_simple.ini or in the admins.cfg file.
We will explain both options below.

admins_simple.ini

The entry in the admins_simple.ini file looks like this:

"STEAM_0:0:00000" "abcdef" //Admin1

First, you need to specify the admin’s SteamID, followed by the flags. You can find the meaning of each individual flag in the admin_levels.cfg file. Finally, you add the admin’s name. Similarly to the Basic Mode, the name can be freely chosen.

admins.cfg

An admin in the admins.cfg file needs to be added in XML-style. Here is an example:

    Admins
    {
        "Admin1"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:001"
            "flags"            "abcdefghijklmnopqrstz"
        }
        "Admin2"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:002"
            "flags"            "abcdefghijklmnopqrstz"
        }
        "Admin3"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:003"
            "flags"            "abcdefghijklmnopqrstz"
        }
        "Admin4"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:004"
            "flags"            "abcdefghijklmnopqrstz"
        }
    }

Note that only the name, SteamID, and flags can be modified in this case. You can also assign admins to a group, which would look like this:

    Admins
    {
        "Admin1"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:001"
            "group"            "Group1"
        }
        "Admin2"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:002"
            "group"            "Group2"
        }
        "Admin3"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:003"
            "group"            "Group3"
        }
        "Admin4"
        {
            "auth"            "steam"
            "identity"        "STEAM_0:1:004"
            "group"            "Group4"
        }
    }

You can create the groups in the admin_groups.cfg file. Otherwise, the same rules apply here: only the name, SteamID, and group can be modified.
