Ifinally went to the temporal tear today, and I was expecting a cutscene/cinematic based on reading other posts. However, I got nothing more than a journal entry and a colony achievement :(. When I went to look at the colony achievement, I noticed a big red 'X' next to 'Achievements' and it says "Platform achievements cannot be unlocked because a debug command was used in this colony." I have a million questions...
Am I totally screwed? I never did anything in debug mode, and I only entered it by accident as it's very easy to accidentally hit backspace when you mean to press backslash. Is there some way to turn off that flag? Was this what killed the cutscene, or is that just not working or not present?
Hitting backspace has nothing to do with your colony being locked out of achievements. If you have the debug enabling file in the directory, you're SooL on storing am achievements. Remove/rename that file and your next base will be good to go.
I had to use debug tool to save my dupes from bugs so many times. When my dupe take a swim in hot lake, he just gets stuck endlessly falling and not even appear to be downed and noone can rescue him. Sometimes it happens on ladders where dupe gets stuck on it and can't move. Anyone else had this problem?
not true. having the file does not disable the ability to gain achievements, nor actually, does pressing backspace (just tested to confirm) Using debug commands however (alt Q for example) does.
it might be out benefit though... we people that have it for years in there can just debug and get achievements I am pretty sure that I got several steam achievements while straight up drawing things in debug mode.
I have lived with my colony for 200 cycles already, conducted some experiments with the "Debug" menu in other saves, and I notice that now, on my main passage, when certain conditions are met, achievements in Steam are not issued.
I can tell what I do. I never enabled debug nor sandbox mode on my main play survival colony. I have another colony specifically for design experiments ("The Debug Colony"). I put things on and off, destroy and rebuild all the time. And once something works more or less, I take screenshots of the different layouts and switch back to the main colony and try it on survival.
The main feature of said debug colony is just empty space. And destroying everything took its time. Is there a colony sav that is completely clean of everything? I suppose that can come in handy for other players to start testing stuff.
Starfield console commands can be used to manipulate Bethesda's big space RPG in all kinds of fun and wonky ways. Use cheats to turn on god mode, walk through walls, instantly gain levels for your character, increase your carrying capacity, or give yourself free money to buy every spaceship in the galaxy. Or try spawning any item in the game, changing a companion's affinity toward you, tweaking the gravity wherever you are just for fun, and just generally getting up to Starfield hijinks.
More good news: If you've played a Bethesda RPG like Skyrim or Fallout 4 and used console commands, you have a head start. Many of Starfield's console commands are identical and work exactly the same way.
Important note: Using console commands can sometimes cause glitches, crashes, and other problems, so please save your game before experimenting with them. They also disable achievements, although you can get around that with the Achievement Enabler mod. See our guide to the best Starfield mods for more.
You can also add items to your inventory using player.additem [item ID] [#] and then drop them, but you have to manually drop them one at a time if you want to cover the floor, because they stack if you drop them all at once. If you do drop them one at a time, they pleasingly arrange themselves in a summoning circle:
Use player.paycrimegold 0 0 [faction ID] to pay off a bounty with a particular faction. Note that the bounty will be paid out of the credits in your inventory, this isn't a free solution, just a fast one. Though while you've got the console open, maybe just give yourself free credits.
If you open the console with a companion in view, you can click on them to set them as the target for these commands, which tell you their affinity level and let you set it to what you want. These aren't perfectly straightforward, as redditor Objective_Tailor607 has discovered through experimentation.
There are more Starfield console commands, but most of them have debugging purposes that aren't especially useful for the average player (like checking whether or not a door is locked). We'll keep adding to this list as we discover useful ones. You can find more Starfield console commands yourself by using the help command, which is also used to find ID codes needed for some commands.
Below, you'll find some Starfield console commands which require a little elaboration, as well as a ton of useful IDs for items, skills, and more. See the "Finding item IDs" section at the bottom of this article for more on how to find IDs yourself.
Use with these codes with the player.additem [item id] [#] console command, replacing the # with the number of items you want to add to your inventory (I've set it to 1 in the example commands, which you can copy and paste into the console).
To manually mod a weapon, first drop it on the ground, then open the console and click on the weapon to get its reference ID. You might have to crouch down and click around a bit to find get it to work.
Use the command [weapon reference ID].amod [mod ID] to add a mod, referencing the mod IDs below. The same command with "rmod" will remove a mod. These are kind of finicky, and don't always want to work for me.
Hungry for some sandwiches without all the bother? Thankfully you don't have to be a master of the culinary arts in Starfield, just the console ones. Here's some of our favorite foods to spawn a stack of.
You can refine your search by adding a number after the search term. Add a 1 to search for console commands, and a 4 to search for variables like item IDs. For example, the command help player 1 will return console commands which contain "player" and the command help computer 1 will return variables that contain "computer," such the IDs of all the computer terminals that appear in the game.
You can also add a four letter code after the number to refine your search even further by specifying a variable category. Food items are all labeled ALCH, for instance. So the command help meat 4 ALCH will only list variables which contain "meat" and are food items.
