Natural Selection 2 Server Commands – BisectHosting (Spanish)

Natural Selection 2 server commands allow administrators to exert direct control over the game state and the connected player population. These inputs enable the manipulation of match flow, allowing for the forced restarts of rounds or the cycling of maps to maintain variety. Beyond gameplay pacing, the console enables roster management, granting authority to shuffle teams for balance or eject disruptive individuals. Advanced settings enable the enforcement of specific rules, including the activation of tournament modes or password protection.

Requirement: Admin permissions are required to run server commands. Learn how to add admins here.
