If you’re looking to customize and cheat in your Satisfactory game, there are a ton of console commands you should know about.
While you may be interested in flying around your world as a god, you may also just want to go into the debug mode or alter how your game looks.
Whether you’re playing alone or on your dedicated server, we’ll explain how to type out console commands and how they all work.
How to access the console
Before you start getting into the weeds of all the commands you can use, you’ll first need to know how to access the console itself. You can bring up the console by hitting the tilde/backtick (~/`) key on your keyboard.
Now that the command line is open, press the key again to open it as a larger window. From here, you can type out whichever command you’d like based on the options below.
How all console commands work
As a reminder, since Satisfactory recently had its 1.0 release, some commands that worked in Early Access are currently not functioning. These are the commands that don’t work as of writing this:

Other than Satisfactory crashing on launch, this is one of the bigger issues players have had with the game’s full release. For now, you’ll only be able to use the console commands written in the table below:
| Command | Effect |
|---|---|
| ? (without pressing Enter) | Shows a list of all commands, both useable and unusable. |

How to use debug commands
Besides normal console commands, you can also play around with debug commands. Each debug command goes by the same standard, which is “ShowDebug DebugType[FName]“. The italicized portion must be replaced by any of the options in the table below.
No matter which command you use, you’ll see information at the top left dictating your name, coordinates, rotation, instigator, owner, and base eye height.
Replace the italicized portion of “ShowDebug DebugType[FName]” with any of these options below for specific effects:
| Italic Replacement | Effect |
|---|---|
| AI | Unknown, presumably shows enemy or vehicle information. |
| AKAUDIOSOURCES | Displays number of active audio sources. |
| ANIMATION | Unknown, presumably displays information on the animation that is playing. |
| BONES | Unknown, presumably shows bone connection information. |
| CAMERA | Shows information on camera position. |
| CIRCUITS | Shows information on any circuits/power networks in your world. |
| COLLISION | Unknown, presumably displays information of collisions. |
| FACTORY | Displays the number of structures built by players. |
| FACTORYCONNNECTIONS | Unknown. Causes lag. |
| FORCEFEEDBACK | Shows information on force feedback values. |
| INPUT | Shows information on which input method is being used and which keys/buttons are being used. |
| NET | Unknown, presumably shows multiplayer connection information. |
| NONE | Displays default information and hides everything else. |
| PHYSICS | Shows physics-related information (player velocity/speed etc.) |
| POWER | Unknown. Causes lag. |
| RADIATION | Shows information on the radioactivity subsystem. |
| RADIATIONSPHERES | Displays spheres where radiation would affect players. |
| Reset | Hides all debug information. |
| SIGNIFICANCEMANAGER | Shows information on sounds being played. |
| TRACKS | Shows information on railroad subsystem on tracks. |
| TRAINSCHEDULER | Shows information on train schedules. |
| TRAINSIGNALS | Displays train signal information. |
| TRAINS | Shows information on any existing trains. |
| VEHICLE | Shows information on the player’s vehicle. |
| WEAPON | Displays information on held weapons. |
