How to use console commands in Starfield

To access the Starfield console on your PC keyboard, simply press the tilde key (~). This will enable you to enter various commands. It's important to note that using most of these commands will disable achievements. Additionally, any modified values will be indicated by an "[M}" symbol next to your saves.

Using the help command

Additionally, PC players have the option to locate the StarfieldConsoleHistory.log file by navigating to C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\Starfield. This file keeps a record of all console commands used, even in the event of reverting to a clean save. To ensure a smooth experience, it is recommended to download an achievement enabler mod. One such mod is the Achievement Enabler created by user Brunph, which can be found on Nexus Mods.

Furthermore, the most helpful Starfield console command is the help function: help <term/mechanic/item name> 4. For example, if you are searching for a specific NPC or perk ID, you can simply type "help Sarah 4" or "help Piloting 4" to view a list of related IDs. From there, you have the ability to input the appropriate function that modifies the desired value.

Player effects and items

God mode: Tgm - Grants your character invulnerability to all damage, while still consuming oxygen; provides unlimited ammunition and infinite jetpack boost.

Experience points: Player.modav experience <value> - Entering a desired number here will add that amount of XP to your current total. For example, if you currently have 100 XP and you input player.modav experience 1000, your total will become 1,100 XP. This includes all normal level ups and skill points earned.

To add items, use the Player.additem command. You can utilize the help command to search for the specific item ID. This command covers a wide range of items such as weapons, armors, ammo types, and more.

To obtain digipicks, apply the Player.additem 0000000A command. Here, the value denotes the quantity of digipicks that will be added to your inventory.

To search for a specific item in the game, use a relevant word and utilize the help function. Once you have found the item, you can utilize the player.additem command to add it to your inventory.

Companion affinity

Regarding recruitable companions in Starfield, there are several console commands that directly influence their affinity levels. It is important to focus on their affinity thresholds, as they trigger unique conversations at specific levels (e.g., 100, 200, 300, etc.). To manage this, follow these steps:

When a companion is in front of you, open the console with the tilde key (~).

Click on a companion to see their reference ID.

Check the value by making the companion's reference ID visible and typing "getav com_affinity" to view the affinity value.

Set the value by typing "setav com_affinity " to adjust the companion's affinity level.

Set this one point below the next threshold. For example, the first unique conversation occurs at 100 affinity, so you should use: setav com_affinity 99. Afterwards, engage in an activity they enjoy or simply explore until the next conversation is triggered.

Before altering a companion's affinity value, make sure to take note of it.
