Server Configuration

Configure your American Truck Simulator or Euro Truck Simulator 2 server.

Adding Moderators

You can add moderators to help manage your server.

Step 1: Get Steam64 IDs

Each moderator needs their Steam64 ID. To find a Steam64 ID:
  1. Go to SteamID Lookup or search “Steam ID Lookup” on Google
  2. Enter the player’s Steam profile URL
  3. Copy their Steam64 ID (a long number like 76561198012345678)

Step 2: Edit Configuration

  1. Open Files in the panel
  2. Navigate to the config file location (see above)
  3. Open server_config.sii
  4. Add the moderator list:
moderator_list: 3
moderator_list[0]: 76561198012345678
moderator_list[1]: 76561198087654321
moderator_list[2]: 76561198011111111
Replace the example Steam64 IDs with your actual moderator Steam64 IDs. The number after moderator_list: should match how many moderators you’re adding.

Step 3: Restart Server

Save the file and restart your server for changes to take effect.
