Managing a CoD4x server means controlling who can use which commands.
Every command has a minimum power level — a value between 1 and 100 that defines the authority required to use it.
Here’s a complete breakdown of all command power levels from the configuration you shared, grouped by admin role and explained in simple terms.

Final Notes
-
Always assign power levels carefully.
Giving 100-power commands to untrusted admins is risky. -
You can customize these values in your
power.cfgto match your admin structure. -
Typical structure:
-
Player: 1–10
-
Moderator: 30–70
-
Admin: 80–95
-
Owner: 98–100
-
Keep your hierarchy balanced, and your CoD4x server will stay safe, fair, and well-managed.
