All Console Commands / All Research

[apokalum]

Looped through the '_G' table using the console and below is what I found:

ALL COMMANDS / TABLES / VARIABLES

I don't yet know what all of them do. I've mostly used SetFlag so far. Those with underscores are tables, lowercase ones are mostly lua functions that don't have to do with the game. Those in title case are the game related commands.

I'll be looking more into the other game related functions and will reply to this thread if I find anything in the future.

The game's JSON has quite a lot of these ; for example, all these techs are in the DEFAULT repository. Other repositories relate to which story an object (or metadata) belongs to

e.g. in the early game
SetFlag("BEYOND.ERMYR_BRIBED") will set the flag in the Beyond the Gateway mission (from the BEYOND story) for the Ermyr being bribed to true ; ClearFlag would un-set it. Presumably this has some bearing on whether the Ermyr offer that option (in addition to whether you got the hint about them being bribe-able in the first place), and whether they show up when needed.

@justkevin Corollary question on dev. console commands, if you would:

- Is there a console command to selectively remove *one* technology, or is that something more easily done at the level of the save file?

[tasos74]

How to use the crew skill commands? I found the AwardXP gives xp byt doesn't level up.

There's currently no "forget one tech" command, so you're better off editing the save.

[justkevin]

I haven't reviewed all these commands and some may not work as expected.

Also, SetFlag() doesn't give you a tech. If a tech has some narrative prerequisite, this will unlock the tech. AddTech is the command to gift yourself a tech.

Gotcha. e.g. EMP resistance / hard radiation resistance have prerequisite flags for the tech to become unlocked

Thanks!

[Forsparda]

how does the get resource command work do you just use the full name of the resource?
i ask because im tired of grinding for Neutronium and gold

[shiantar]

Hi @forsparda
I did this once before and didn't write down how I did it. One moment

[shiantar]

Ah.
So the syntax is
SetResource(string, int)
where 'string' is an all-caps string literal matching one of the physical resource types (not e.g. RESOURCEPOINTS, but "ALUMINUM", "GOLD", etc. enclosed in double-quotes
int is a 32-bit integer (though the UI looks prettiest with numbers 0 through 999999 only)

So e.g.
> SetResource("CHIRALITE", 100)
- Sets your Chiralite inventory to 100

> SetResource("XENIUM", 0)
- Takes away any Xenium you're carrying

AdjustResearchPoints() accepts an integer, but it can be signed (e.g. 1000, -1000) to add or subtract 1000 RP respectively

I assume that AdjustResource() works with a string literal and a signed integer

You *can* SetResource to a negative number ; if done at your space station you'll be prevented from leaving. I assume it has some use in the Planning Mode UI or something

Thanks for this. Btw Metallic Helium is "METALLIC_HELIUM"

[shiantar]

I was always wondering whether a use would be found for metallic helium, but it gathered dust for about ... I wanna say a year and a bit before it was phased out.

Owing to how JSON can remember things which are no longer used (or have no idea of things which have yet to be used) the game files are full of such things.

One of these days, we need to have @justkevin do a Reddit-style AMA and have him answer questions like, "What's the Oxygen Infuser for?" and "why have I never heard of the Astroscience officer expressing an allergy to the Nimion diplomat's fur?"

It's easy for us to dismiss these things as 'cut content' but at the same time, it's hard for the players to submit feedback on events that never happen but don't block anything lol :D
