I truly dont know but I must say, I would like to use the developer mode commands. Because what if you severely outnumber the enemy with Air Superiority and its like a 50 (You) vs 3 (Enemy) units but it says your losing. I would like to use the mass conquer tool but apparently, 50% of commands are locked. Like whats the use of putting the command in the console visible when no one is allowed to use it?

You have to break into Paradox's Stockholm HQ and steal a computer from them.(Don't forget to kill any witnesses!)

It's actually "-debug"
Only one "-" not two "--"

Right click on your game in the steam library. Select Properties. And it's in the bottom of the window that opens up.

Not working for me as well.
Typing -debug into launch option is just to enable the debug mode isn't it?
I'm sure it does enabled debug mode but it still can't use the spawn command

According to literal sources from Paradox's own forums, the -debug will allow you to spawn stuff as well. So unless PDX has changed it in a way that you can no longer do it (which is pretty much expected of them at this point), it should work. If it doesn't, well then you're sh*t out of luck and no one can help you.
