Every time i log in after creating an account i am unable to resume. I have to go back to tutorial island everytime with a fresh start... i've tried changing things to "true" in the default.config file located in the world prop folder. I also have a "newer" version of the source from github. Is there something i am doing wrong perhaps?

- don't change random server properties
- make sure you have write access (and not read only access) to the directory the files are in

I was able to get all that taken care of. I am now able to save my player file. I am now unable to give myself admin on the server. Would that be in the player's config file?

you seem to have replaced the equals signs with dashes on a few config options

very odd, i am not sure why the screenshot reflects that. Everything on my end looks alright but for some reason still not able to make changes in the game. O well.

No, you amped up your XP rate beyond what is considered reasonable, so the server is rolling your stats back to what you would've earned on 5x (the max)
This quirk is mentioned on the
SP gitlab page where you downloaded SP, several times here on the forums from people asking the same question, and in the
Singleplayer FAQ here on the forums.
