This is how to use the add_equipment console command

[RyansPlace]

UPDATE: I added this info to the guides tab under the same title (link below).
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1679531581&searchtext=add This thread will no longer be updated.

I created a quick guide to spawn the best equipment in game. This comes in handy when you're just learning the mechanics of the game and want to have fun. Create a new text document using wordpad or similar software, then copy and paste the below into it:

*Note: Specified equipment must be researched for add_equipment command to work. Use the research_on_icon_click command to add technologies you lack for desired equipment.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press ` (top left key) to open console commands.
Copy and paste any line below (Don't include the #):
Example: add_equipment 10 artillery_equipment_2

Hey I am doing the recent 1.7 Millennium Dawn and adding mechanized does not work what so ever, Got any idea's?

[RyansPlace]

MD uses different equipment identifiers. I wouldn't expect this to work for that.

[Fyzzy4life]

Hope this will get updated tomorrow

[Bombu]

Thank you, now i can beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of Soviets early game as Finland.

Hi Ya'll, how do I delete Airplanes with console command? (Or any other way that will achieve the same result).
For Armies and navies there is delall, but unfortunately it doesn't work for airplanes.

[Astra Militarum]

Or you can use add_latest_equipment #, to get everything without having to type individually

I don't want to get/add equipment, I want to do the opposite, get rid/delete airplanes.
As I said, I know how to delete navies and armies but not airplanes.

manually delete them. there's no command

There is no way to manually delete them (not that I know of anyhow).
You can only disband airwings not delete (you do this by clicking on a trash can icon, that confusingly does not trash/delete but just send the to stockpile).

Does anybody know how to add negative numbers of equipment?
Tried it but no luck, but maby I'm missing something.

Yeah disband airwings and then it goes to reserves. Then open the logistic.(https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/images/6/60/Qwertyui_hotkeys.png) <- you can access it by letter I. Search for planes, then delete it.

I usually send outdated equipment as a lend lease to allies and puppets.

Beautiful mate, you made my day, I've been searching for a way to do this for a very long time.
Thanks heaps!!!

[S_Gren]

Armored cars?

[RafaelM]

It seems like you can only add equipment you have already researched, just a heads up (couldn't add anti-tank level 3, only level 1, for example)

[Zσΰѕє]

yes
