Hytale Permissions Reference

Complete reference of all built-in Hytale permission nodes. Use these with HyperPerms to control what players can do on your server.

Use wildcards to grant multiple permissions at once. For example, hytale.command.teleport.* grants all teleport-related commands.

Wildcards

Use wildcards to grant entire categories of permissions at once:

Permission NodeDescription
hytale.*All Hytale permissions (everything)
hytale.command.*All command permissions
hytale.editor.*All editor permissions
Only trailing wildcards are supported. Middle wildcards like hytale.*.ban do not work — this matches vanilla Hytale behavior. Use hytale.command.ban directly or hytale.command.* for all commands.
Important: Hytale's built-in permission system forcibly resets the OP and Default groups every time the server starts. Any custom permissions added to these groups via /perm will be lost on restart. Always use HyperPerms groups instead (/hp group create).
