Did you set an rcon password? ifIf so then, rcon_password somesuperlongandawesomepassword
will elevate your permissions to OP. Once elevated you may then use rcon sv_cheats 1
to turn on cheats.
BREAKDOWN:
rcon
- issue remote console command
sv_cheats
- cheats for server command
1
- enabled
If not you may still be able to set one from the dedicated server console, OR issue the commands you want there.
HERE is a guide I found to set your rcon_password on the server at server launch in the cvar_list.
