SCP: Secret Laboratory admin commands run through the RemoteAdmin (RA) panel — the in-game menu moderators and admins use to manage a round. Here's how to open it and the text commands that matter, with syntax. You need moderator permission or higher, set in the server's RemoteAdmin config.
Quick answer
In SCP: Secret Laboratory, admin commands run through the RemoteAdmin (RA) panel: press M in-game with moderator permission or higher, then click actions or type text commands into the RA input. The same commands work from the server console. Admins are granted by SteamID (with @steam) in config_remoteadmin.txt.
With moderator permission or higher, press M in-game to open the RemoteAdmin panel. You can click players and actions, or type text commands into the RA input. The same commands also work from the server console. Grant admins by SteamID (with @steam) in config_remoteadmin.txt.
