Creative Mode
Information
Added in
Patch 278.0

Server admins can now activate Creative Mode for certain players. In Singleplayer you can activate it for yourself.

Commands

Use the following commands in order to activate Creative Mode.

  • cheat GiveCreativeMode or GCM to activate it for yourself.
  • cheat GiveCreativeModeToTarget or GCMT to toggle Creative Mode for the player you are targeting.
  • cheat GiveCreativeModeToPlayer <playerid> or GCMP to toggle Creative Mode for a player by their ID.
  • All three console commands act as a toggle - running them a second time will remove Creative Mode (all effects except gained engrams, which require the player log out and log back in to fully remove)

Features

Creative Mode gives a bunch of different abilities to the user:

  • removes weight restrictions (sets weight stat to 99999.9).
  • removes Crafting Requirements.
  • instant crafting of items (you can't craft element or element shards).
  • flying (without the use of additional commands, check the section below for details).
  • unlocks all engrams.
  • grants infinitestats and godmode (you can still die to gigas and titans)
  • adds the Admin Blink Rifle to your inventory

Flying

With Creative Mode, you can now toggle flying by double-tapping jump (default Space, A, Cross). You can also run (hold ⇧ Shift,LB,L2) to fly faster.

Notes

  • Does NOT make you invisible
  • You shouldn't give creative mode to players you don't trust
  • After removing Creative Mode from a player, the user will still have access to any gained engrams. To remove them, the user must log out and back in again (just like the GiveEngrams console command)
  • Currently you cannot create custom recipes without the materials required
  • With X you can immediately destroy misplaced structures so you can fix it (while in fly mode)
  • You can kill yourself with rockets.
  • You can still be killed by wild Giganotosaurus and Titanosaurus
