Admin Commands (SourceMod)
This page lists all of the major admin commands in SourceMod.
Chat Triggers: Remember that commands do not have to be entered through the console; they can be entered via chat triggers. For example, saying "!ban bail" in chat will execute the same command as "sm_ban" and forward the output to chat. You can also use "/" instead of "!" to suppress your command from being shown to users.
How to Target
General targets:
- name - Exact name match, or partial name match (if the partial string is unique).
- #userid - If userid is numeric, the player will be targeted by their userid (found via the "users" command).
- @all - All players (available on most commands).
- @bots - All bots (available on most commands).
- @alive - All alive players (available on most commands that accept alive players).
- @dead - All dead players (available on most commands that accept dead players).
- @humans - All non-bot players (available on most commands).
- @aim - Current player the admin is directly aiming at.
Counter-Strike only:
- @ct or @cts - All Counter-Terrorists
- @t or @ts - All Terrorists
