In the console type,

Code: Select all

/c game.peacefulmode = true
Then,

Code: Select all

/c game.killallenemies()

They will respawn. It only kills biters and spitters that are already spawned, because they won't be in peaceful mode.

So starting the game with peaceful mode ON and then turning it OFF after a while, you do or do not need to kill the current monsters?

There is also a mod that just removes the biters from spawning completely. And adds a special mineable resources to get the artifacts from to make purple packs. Worth checking out if you just don't want to deal with them at all. I believe it is called Peace Mod.

If a "Kill All" console command is used, won't that make it impossible to harvest those purple Alien Artifact thingies?

It kills aliens, not spawners. And alies respawn though they're acting more peaceful.

Up to you. You can wait until you kill the biters naturally(where biters not in peace mode will spawn) or kill them with the command.

Yeah I just want to kill the peaceful ones so non-peaceful ones spawn.

The default key is "~" so just press that key and you should be able to get into console!!! If it doesn't work go to options and controls and find it there!!!
