What Console Commands results in achievement obstruction?
I know you could mod and console command to your hearts feverish content in the original Skyrim, but what about SE?

Let's say a dumb, but critically important and essential (immortal) NPC walked into my flame spray while we were fighting some undead ancient Nords, and now he is pissed off, like chronically just, angry with a deep rage, projected at me...so i'm the a$$hole...

I remember resurrecting one follower, because I managed to aggro a pack of mammoths and 3 giants, and then a dragon came...she fought for our lives, and I felt she didn't deserve that on our first outing.

I received the warning about how "some cc can disable achievements", but I have unlocked several after resing this one gal. So perhaps "stopcombat" is OK as well?

Anybody know for certain what commands actually disable achievements for the one save-file? Would hate to mess up now.

They won't BUT you should not use console commands unless you absolutely know what you are doing and even then you best make a hard save before doing so. I almost never use them except maybe a tcl when I am stuck. Also for taking screenshots.

I think Bethesda simply wanted discourage people from using them since they got so many issues where people broke their game as a result of using them. Console commands were not meant as a fixing tool they are a developers tool.

Here's a discussion thread from the day after AE came out:

thanx for the link to the reddit about this particular issue, seems like Beth just wanted to introduce a more potent anti game-breaking caveat for players, by stating that you will disable achievements, seems like you can use a bunch of commands.

And I do know that they are meant as a developer tool, but to not make use of them in order to fix minor issues that messes with your progress despite your best efforts is not a smart thing. I want to be smart.

I see you play Skyrim SE a lot too, do you perchance know if there is a finite number of perks you can unlock? Or can you unlock as long as you have points after leveling, and what is the maximum level? But I bet you can respec later down the line?

Thanx again

You can fill perks as long as you have perks, but you will have to reset a skill tree after hitting
100 if you want enough perks to fill every tree.
Once a skill gets to 100, you can turn it "legendary" which resets it and gives you back all
your perks.
