Configuring the resource
Setting yourself as owner
To give yourself all the permissions Cobalt Essentials offers, you can set yourself as the pre-made owner role.
Be careful!
We do not recommend giving anyone other than users you trust this role as it gives them permissions to many dangerous commands (ban, kicking, changing others permissions, stopping the server)
You can set a user as owner by entering the following command into the console: ce setgroup yourName owner, replacing yourName with your username.
