My main post is here.
From the post: "Seems like I'm the only one (or am I?). I load any COOP map. Type in chat rcon debug. Then, for example, If I'm german, I type in chat rcon spawner ger_marksman or rcon prbot, but nothing appears." Loaded up Wanda few mins ago and did that as a German. No reaction - there's no info on the screen after typing rcon debug (I think it should there should be a notification on the screen).
Am I doing something wrong? Because I remember I didn't have any problems using rcon a while ago (in 1.3). And I used rcon in an online training server to spawn kits few weeks ago.
Has the way you type rcon commands changed from 2011? Because most tutorials are kinda dated.

Don't forget to tick "Enable RCON commands" in the PR Launcher. By default it is ticked only for local, not local coop. It is a black square instead of a tick. It probably reset after the update.

Adm commands are not affecting the BOT's on the cooperative server, example: !Switch "BOT NAME" and no effect.

yes, you have to do that, but also edit the file manually as I already replied on the other thread...PatrickLA_CA wrote:Don't forget to tick "Enable RCON commands" in the PR Launcher.

Well it worked for me without editing anything.

In my experience it has never worked in COOP local... I always thought that was intentional.
Then again, I haven't tried local in some years...

After you have selected 'Enable RCON Command' and played COOP, you would need to re-enable it again for it to work as there's an issue where coop turns it off.
