How to cheating in the game

[halida]

Hi, I'm figuring out how to cheat in game, we know that there is a wiki about using console:

And for supplementary, to get some more resources:

game.player.insert{name="iron-plates",count=100}

You can find all item names under game directory: ./data/base/locale/en/item-names.cfg

So do you cheat in game? or what kinds of cheat are you use?

Why cheat if you can setup game in the start?

Because we can.

Dynamic change game sandbox is fun.

I've used test mode to spawn some items to kickstart my factory before. Because I couldn't bother with the first half hour of manual mining, again(I do think you spawn with a burner miner now, that's an improvement). And I used it to disable the day/night cycle because it was annoying me that I practically had to stop building at night, and as a result had nothing to do because biters weren't a problem either.

HAHAH!! Thats always the right reason!! There is really no reason or need to cheat, being able to create your own maps and rules goes far beyond any kinds of cheats that might be available!! I guess just being able to zap a hoard of bugs coming to tear you apart is nice, but being able to set them how you want from the start makes that point mute! There is nothing here that you cant do! So I think that is the biggest cheat you could ever want!!
