Troubleshooting Common Problems

• Cannot Open Console: Make sure your keyboard language is set to ENG. If it’s set to another language, you might find that the ` symbol isn’t accessible or requires a combination of keystrokes. Adjusting your keyboard settings can resolve this. An alternative is to find what key or combination inputs the ` and use that, for example, Spanish keyboard layouts do it by holding ALT+CTRL+] twice.
• Command Not Recognized: Double-check the spelling of your command. Using the TAB key can help you with correct command names.
• No Admin Privileges: If you’ve set up everything correctly but still lack admin permissions, ensure that your player ID is correctly configured in the server settings.
