Barotrauma servers can be enjoyable to experience with small friend groups or sprawling public servers. While public servers can be exciting and fun, they also bring a risk of random players griefing or causing trouble. By utilizing console commands, server admins can permanently kick or ban a player from the server. This permission can also be extended to other ranks or made into a public vote-kick using the server settings.
