Console commands
- Brady Brenot (Deactivated)
First, the UDN has most of the built-in UE3 commands (there are a few minor ones you might stumble across in native code). See Unreal Engine 3 Console Commands, Unreal Editor Console Commands, and Stat Command Descriptions. Some built-in commands are included on this page, but not all.
Commands are not case sensitive.
Table of Contents
Server Info
GetServerRotation
Shows server's map rotation
GetServerSdkMaps
Shows all custom maps on the server
GetServerMod
Shows server's current mod
Getall aocgri servername
Shows server's name
Debugging
showdebug
Enables the debug HUD (for programmers, search for the DisplayDebug function to see how to add information to this).
This has handy things like pawn speed, pawn and weapon state, and so forth. When logged in as an admin on a server, using this command will show you how long the server is taking to tick every frame (as a running average).
ShowMyParryBox
ShowOthersParryBoxes
ShowAllParryBoxes
(* These do not work in the current SDK version, but will in a future one; however, you can also copy these functions into your own PlayerController classes if you want them, just search AOCPlayerController for them) Displays player parry boxes using a translucent material. Only enabled in non-final_release
show collision
Shows... collision
showlinecheck
Shows line checks as actual rendered lines
showextentlinecheck
Shows extent line checks; the extent is drawn as a rectangle at the end of the check, with a line extending to the start point of the check
AOCAI_Debug
AOCAI_VisualDebugging
AOCAI_VerboseLogging
enables Chivalry-specific AI logging (_Debug just toggles both of the other two). Note that there was already a command for this built into the UT or UDK code that we probably should have utilized instead...
aoc_drawtracer 1
Draws tracers on the current weapon. Unlike showlinecheck, the lines persist until the next attack, and are colour-coded.
aoc_showdamage
aoc_consoledamage
Shows damage as floating numbers and on the console. Only works for admins, and affects all players on server.
Performance
stat fps
Shows current framerate (running average in Shipping, somethingrather in Release)
stat unit
Shows current frame time, split amongst game, drawing, and GPU threads.
profilegame start
profilegame stop
Starts/stops the gameplay profiler. Profiles the gameplay thread in general, including specific Unrealscript functions. You may need to set STATS_SLOW to 1 to get detailed Unrealscript info. Instead of start/stop, you can put in a number for the number of seconds to run the profiler for.
stat startfile
stat stopfile
Starts/stops stats gathering for Stats Viewer. Includes the same functionality as profilegame, and more. You can even connect Stats Viewer to a live server, although this will slow it down to almost unbearable levels.
Admin
admin
Followed by any command executes that command on the server. You can start profiling commands on the server without having to RDP in and use UnrealConsole by using this.
adminlogin
Followed by the server's admin password, allows you to log into a server as an admin.
adminlogout
Logs out as admin
getinfo
Gives a user's IP address and NetID (uniquely identifies them using their Steam ID), which is useful in case we want to globally ban someone (that is, put his IP/NetID in the config files of every server). Parameter is a string in the player's name, or leave the parameter out altogether to get info on everyone.
adminkick
Kicks a user. Requires you to type their whole name right now, which kind of sucks. It's a built-in command.
adminkickban
Kicks a user and permanently bans them (i.e. puts their IP/NetID in the config file). Also a built-in command.
adminchangemap
Changes to a different map. A check is performed to be sure the map exists.
admin servertravel
Changes to a different map without a "does exist" check.
AdminRestartMap
Restarts the map.
AdminChangeTeam
Swaps a selected player to the opposite team.
AdminChangeTeamDamageAmount
Change team damage amount on-the-fly; from 0.0 (no damage) to 1.0 (full damage)
ShowDebug
Not strictly an admin command, but for admins it shows extra information (server tick rate, auto-adjusted net relevancy bonus)
aoc_slomo
Change the server's speed to the string argument (from 0.001 to 2.0; that is, 0.1% to 200% speed)
pause
Pauses the server if the server has admin pausing enabled
aoc_endGame
Ends the current match.
Voting
votekick
Shows a list of all users matching the string argument (or all users if no argument is entered), and allows the user to pick one to initiate a vote kick against. Vote kicks can be adjusted / disabled in the config file.
votechangemap
Votes to change to a certain map.
voteresetmap
Votes to change to reset the current map.
Misc.
switchtoobservermode 2
Smooth spectator camera with all pawns always relevant (i.e. no pawns disappear because they're too far away and the server stops replicating them)
setobs2
Enter setobs2 to see all the setobs2 commands. For setting observermode2 settings (speed, acceleration, etc.)
colorblindsim
Simulates what a color blind player would see when playing the game (does not affect the Scaleform GUI). Enter without any arguments to get an explanation on its usage.
maplist
Shows all available maps matching the string argument (or all maps if no argument entered). This is currently hardcoded, so it might not be accurate.
disableallscreenmessages
Disabled "Paths needs to be rebuilt" and other similar level-related messages. May be useful for screenshots.
enablevignette
Argument of 0 disables it, 1 enables it. Turn it off for tiled screenshots.
togglehud
Argument of 0 disables the HUD, 1 enables it. Turn it off for fancy or tiled screenshots.
tiledshot A B
For super high-resolution screenshots. Use enablevignette 0 and togglehud 0 first (see above). Takes a screenshot of size A*ScreenResolution.X by A*ScreenResolution.Y, with B pixels of overlap. See http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/TakingScreenshots.html
