90% f these commands dont even work

That ~dev menu practically speaking is where the vast majority of useful console command actions is located. I found it especially useful for spawning claimable asteroids for me to convert into mines! To unlock it, the following console commands must be entered. Note: you may need to exit and then re-enter your server before running the second command, but I am not sure.

/devmode
/run Entity():addScript("lib/entitydbg.lua")

From there, a new puzzle icon will show up in the top right corner of your screen. Click on that, and this comprehensive menu will be yours to make use of! It's even organized into different folders so that finding a specific action like spawning a claimable asteroid into your current sector is easy!

Incorrect, that command doesn't give you an accessable menu. Select a station (preferably) then it's /run Entity().selectedObject:addScript("lib/entitydbg.lua") to get the dev menu option when interacting with it. It adds a ~dev menu item along with the usual ones. There are all options in the menus, not just related to the object you used to get the menu.

/run Entity():addScript("lib/entitydbg.lua")

Debug command. Lets you spawn in enemies, cargo, items, etc. Can even change the music, give upgrades, and even copy your ship so you can mass produce your fleet. Lots to do with the debug menu.

Have fun~

Yanoi~SA told us the right Commands:

/give -p <Player> -g <Item> -a (Amount) 1
/give -p iCeCoPe -g credits -a 1000

and the correct Dev Tool Command is:

/run Entity():addScript("lib/entitydbg.lua")

i missing the /teleport command up there

/teleport -123 -321

Anyone know how to delete the head hunter/bounty hunter faction?
Shahiko 27 Oct, 2022 @ 12:07pm 
if need any further assistance free to message me on steam my stuff isnt locked to messages
Shahiko 27 Oct, 2022 @ 12:07pm 
Incase anyone wishes to know how to add admins with spaces i believe you do this

/Admin -a "Shahiko The Insane Bunny" <<< if that dont work Avorion also does there spaces with an underscore so /Admin -a "Shahiko_The_Insane_Bunny" <<< Not sure works with player names for underscores but works for items so give it a shot
Vokun Vulon 23 Oct, 2022 @ 9:43am 
Can anyone answer how this handles spaces in names? My friend cannot admin me
Silent 8 Aug, 2022 @ 8:14am 
how do I give myself naonite (and on up) ore to unlock the tiers of building knowledge? I literally only get about 10 ore per asteroid and it's asking for 56,000 ore.
