Cheat Codes and How to Use It

All credit goes to Fungi!

Before Use

Before unleashing the power of cheats, remember that excessive use can make the game lose its charm. Reserve their use for experimentation or when you’re stuck. It’s recommended to play the game without cheats initially to experience the intended gameplay.

How to Activate Cheats

• Make sure you’re inside a save file; cheats can only be activated in-game, not from the main menu.
• Press the “`” key to open the console command menu. On an AZERTY keyboard, it’s “!”. Navigate using the WASD keys to move in-game, triggering the debug menu. Hit the “?” icon located at the bottom right of the menu. Click on “Enable Cheats” from the list that appears. Ignore any bug report that pops up. Press “`” again to exit the menu and resume gameplay.
• Press “`” again to make sure cheats are enabled. Success! You now wield god-like powers, within limits.

Quick PSA

Cheating alters the game experience from its intended design. While it’s your game and your choice, keep in mind that excessive cheating can diminish the fun.

Understanding Cheats

Now, onto the cheats themselves. With over 54 cheats available, let’s categorize them for easier understanding. When executing a cheat, you’ll often need to specify a type and quantity, such as resources. For instance: “AddResourcesToBuilding res_cans 10”.

Remember

• After entering a command, exit the debug menu to apply it in-game.
• Right-click to exit a cheat without executing it.
