How to Ban or Kick Players on a V Rising Server

If you need to temporarily or permanently remove a player from your V Rising dedicated server, you can use server commands or edit the ban list file.

​

Using console commands

1. Press ESC in-game and enable the Console Enabled checkbox in the General settings.
2. Open the Console by pressing the backtick key (`) on your keyboard.
3. Ensure you’re an admin on the server.
4. Use the following commands as needed:
   • To kick a player: kick <username>
   • To ban a player: bancharacter <username>
   • To unban a player: unban <steamID>

​

Using banlist.txt file

You can alternatively use the banlist.txt file on your server to permanently ban players from your V Rising server.

1. Open the Files tab
2. Navigate to /settings/banlist.txt
3. Add the Steam ID of each player you want to ban, placing one Steam ID per line.
4. Save the file
5. Restart the server
