What Is VPPAdminTools and How Does It Work in DayZ?

VPPAdminTools is one of the most popular admin tools for DayZ servers.
It provides an in-game interface that allows server administrators to manage players, spawn items, control the world, and perform moderation actions without using console commands.

What Is VPPAdminTools?

VPPAdminTools is a server-side admin mod that adds an in-game admin panel accessible only to authorised admins.

It allows you to:

  • Manage players in real time
  • Spawn items, vehicles, and objects
  • Teleport players or yourself
  • Monitor player activity
  • Perform moderation actions (kick, ban, freeze, etc.)

The tool is designed to be used in-game, making administration faster and easier than using RCON or config files alone.


How VPPAdminTools Works

VPPAdminTools runs entirely on the server and communicates with authorised clients.

  • Only players listed as admins can open the admin menu.
  • All actions are executed server side.
  • No changes are applied unless an admin actively performs them.

The mod does not change gameplay by itself, it only provides tools for admins.

Teleport Tools

Admins can move freely around the map using:

  • Teleport to players.
  • Teleport players to specific locations.

This is commonly used for:

  • Player support.
  • Event setup.
  • Rule enforcement.

Console

VPPAdminTools includes moderation-focused tools such as:

  • Player logging.
  • Admin action tracking.
  • Activity monitoring.

These tools help server staff enforce rules transparently and consistently.

Permission Editor

Not every admin has to access every feature.

VPPAdminTools supports permission-based access, meaning:

  • You can restrict certain features to specific admins.
  • Sensitive actions can be limited.
  • Admin roles can be separated (moderators vs full admins).

This helps prevent abuse and keeps administration organised.
