Assetto Corsa Admin Commands
How to become admin and use all admin commands on your Assetto Corsa server.
Assetto Corsa uses session-based admin authentication — you enter the admin password in-game to gain admin rights for your current session.
Setting the Admin Password
In cfg/server_cfg.ini, set:
ADMIN_PASSWORD=YourSecurePassword📝 Note: There is no persistent admin list file. Admin access is granted per-session by entering the password.
Authenticating as Admin In-Game
- Join your server
- Open the in-game chat
- Type:
/admin YourSecurePassword - You now have admin rights until you disconnect
Admin Commands
After authenticating, use these commands in chat:

Ban List
Banned players are stored in cfg/blacklist.txt — one Steam GUID per line. You can manually edit this file to add or remove bans:
76561198012345678
76561198087654321Server Console Commands
The acServer process also accepts basic commands directly in the console:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
help | List available commands |
clients | Show connected clients |
kick [GUID] | Kick a player |
ban [GUID] | Ban a player |
unban [GUID] | Unban a player |
next | Skip to next session |
restart | Restart current session |
quit | Stop the server |
💡 Tip: The in-game
/admincommands are more powerful than the server console. Use in-game commands for most admin tasks.
Finding Car IDs
Use /client_list to see all connected players and their car slot numbers. The car ID (e.g., 0, 1, 2) corresponds to the [CAR_N] entry in entry_list.ini.
