AdminESP
Admin ESP for players and structures with smart near/far display, strict @class binding, transponder toggle, and safe live reload.
AdminESP provides admin-focused ESP with two modes:
Players ESP via cheat esp players
Structures ESP via cheat esp structures (optional runtime keyword)
The plugin supports near/far visualization logic to reduce clutter:
Near: per-instance labels
Far: grouped labels by class with count (example: metal x5, forgeplus x2)
Features
Cheat commands: cheat esp players, cheat esp structures, cheat esp structures [keyword], cheat esp off
Strict class binding with @ prefix (example: @dedicatedstorage) — typo by 1 letter = no match
Smart near/far structure rendering with class aggregation and instance expansion by distance
Optional global structure scan with cache refresh interval to reduce load spikes
Thicker label rendering (multi-draw) and anti-overlap stacking
Transponder toggle flow after mode activation
Console reload: AdminESP.reload
Configuration
Notes
Requirements: ARK: Survival Evolved dedicated server; Ark Server API 3.56+
Keep config.json next to DLL
config.json must be valid JSON (no // comments)
Use commented_config.json as reference, then strip comments into config.json
Install
Place plugin files in ArkApi plugins folder
Edit config.json
Run AdminESP.reload after config changes
