The Console Codes

Albromor · Post by **Albromor** » Tue Jun 03, 2003 8:10 pm

I realize that from time to time one's character can get stuck in a wall, door, post, etc., in the game play and thuis it is important to know the console code in order to fix the matter. So, I searched the net for console commands and the only problem that I ran into was that no two are written quite the same. Below are the various examples of how the Add Item gold one was written out. I went with the gold one for experiementation.

Example A: player->add item gold_100

Example B: 'player->AddItem Gold_100' [notice the single quotes and the capitalization of A,I, and G, plus Add and Item are one word]

Eample C: Same as "B" but with double quotes before player and after 100.

I got nowhere. I tried various combinations, various sums of gold. Zilch! I kept getting messages that such-and-such could not be found on line one, whatever that means. So could sombody PLEASE tell me the correct way a console command is written out. Use the Gold one because it has tried my patience! Thanks ahead of time.

The correct format for the additem code is:

player->additem itemx n

with itemx being the ID of your item and n the number you want to create.

Example:

player->additem gold_001 100

If there are spaces in the item ID, use quotes:

player->additem "bonemold arrow" 50

You can learn what the ID for an item is with the Construction Set.

Let me see if I got this right, Sojourner. Lets say I need 100 gold and in order to do so I would access the console and type out the following:

player->additem gold_100 and press Enter, OR do I need the 001 in front of the 100 as you depicted?

Thanks again

Enter it exactly as I typed it. There are multiple ID's for gold, with gold_001 being one of them.

If you enter only

player->additem gold_100

you will get an error message about not entering a count. gold_100 is another ID - and is worth 100 gold pieces, whereas gold_001 is worth 1.

To clarify a bit, if you want to add 27 gold pieces type
player->additem gold_100 27
the gold_100 is the id # and the 27 is the item count
