Flags are given to users when they log in via MAUL.

Distinguishing Ranks

  • DS Tiers use t, s, r, q for tiers 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively
  • eGs are given the c flag (kick)
  • eGO are given the d flag (ban)
  • LE and above are given m (rcon).

Depending on the server, it is possible to edit user's flags (though discouraged) through rcon by running:

Caution

Running commands through rcon in general is discouraged. Make sure you know what you are doing, and you trust whomever you are giving flags to.

  • sm_rcon sm_flags [user] + [flag] to grant a flag
  • sm_rcon sm_flags [user] - [flag] to remove a flag
  • sm_rcon sm_flags [user] = _ to remove all flags
