Starbound
Starbound Console Commands
Presented below is a list of all Starbound console commands for both players and server administrators. These are extremely useful for setting up an environment similar to Minecraft's Creative Mode, or when engaging in construction projects of epic scope.
Most commands require admin privileges - to toggle admin mode, type /admin into the chat box and press enter. Optionally, some commands require debug mode to be first activated by using the /debug command.
All administrative commands begin with /. To send admin commands, type them into the chat box and press enter. Some of these have rather complex arguments, (the information presented as [argument] is the argument), and while powerful, these may be confusing to those unfamiliar with programming. We recommend you search
external sites if you intend to mod procedurally
generated content, such as weapons.
