Restricted Server Settings
You can restrict access to your server based on player statistics (kills, K/D, rank) or a manual whitelist.
Configuration
Add these settings to your playlists_r5_patch.txt or r5rdev_config.json.
restricted_server 0 // Enable restricted/private server settings (1 = enabled)
restricted_join_message "..." // Message shown to players who join successfully
restricted_whitelist_message "..." // Message shown to whitelisted players
restricted_whitelist_only 0 // If 1, only whitelisted players can join
restricted_kick_log 1 // Log kicks to console
Stat Requirements
The following require use_global_stats to be enabled (1).
restricted_kills 500 // Minimum kills required
restricted_kd 0.7 // Minimum K/D ratio required
restricted_playtime 10000 // Minimum playtime (seconds)
restricted_gamesplayed 10 // Minimum games played
restricted_rank 200 // Minimum rank/score required
Whitelisting
To whitelist specific players regardless of their stats (or if using restricted_whitelist_only):
- Open
platform/r5rdev_config.json.
- Locate the
settings object.
- Add a comma-separated list of player OIDs (IDs) to the whitelist field.
- Alternatively, manage this via the Control Panel under “Comma-separated list of whitelisted player IDs”.
Restricted servers will disconnect players who do not meet the requirements with a message explaining why.
