Chat commands

Chat commands provide a backup way to access actions available normally via the actions panel in diag menu.

All commands have to be prefixed with #ff and most of them literally match the selectors in the Actions panel. You can type #ff help to list all available actions. This will print a detailed list in the log, as seen below.

Because the in-game chat limits length of the server response and has no scrolling capability, the help action only returns a list of action names. You can use #ff help <action name> to access the description.

Anything passed after the action name will be used as extra args, just like in the diag menu:

#ff givedogtags 5

By default, the player invoking the command is the target player. A different player can be targeted by passing a --p flag at the end. The flag will be ignored if the action is not relevant to a player.

The example below adds 5 dogtags to the player whose ID is 2:

#ff givedogtags 5 --p=2

Most action selectors in the actions panel literally match command names, but some are defined as aliases. For example, the +5 support is an alias for command #ff townalt sup 5. To see all aliases, refer to {84439CA0C982B7FE}Configs/Dev/DevUtils.conf.

Dumping information

The following commands can be used to dump information to the log file, which is useful to verify issues like “is my custom item correctly assigned to the enemy faction”.
