Lack of permissions in lan server

As the game hoster, you could try opening the console with ~ and type the following:

setplayergroup name admin

where name is the name of the other player. This should set admin on the other player which should open up all permissions

I can't figure this out either, On our lan it always says that group admin not found. my wife cant do setgametype 1 either, Is it because were in survival mode?

If you share a LAN game, the person hosting is automatically the admin. Anyone joining is going to have limited access. You can fix this by setting up a permissions folder in your game directory and set up a default.permissions yaml file. anyone who joins should be given permissions based on the default.permissions file. You can actually go to the rising-world.net website and log in. you'll get a download option. If you grab the server files, you'll be able to extract the permissions directory so you have the default files to copy into your game folder.

in the server version, there is a config file where you can specify a list of admins. This file does not exist in the client side and likely wouldnt work. You may actually have to add an admin.permissions file into the groups subfolder if you really want to have an admin group in your hosted game. But i think if you import the permissions folder from the server files and just tweak the default.permissions file to what you want other players to be allowed to do then there will be no need to change group assignments on anyone.

Thank you very much
