How to grant OP, configure permissions groups, and use admin commands on your Hytale server.

Granting OP

/op self

/op remove PlayerName

permissions.json

Define custom groups with specific permissions:

{
  "groups": {
    "admin": {"permissions": ["*"]},
    "moderator": {"permissions": [
      "hytale.command.kick",
      "hytale.command.ban",
      "hytale.command.tp"
    ]}
  },
  "users": {
    "player-uuid": {"groups": ["admin"]}
  }
}

"*" = all permissions.
