How to use Ark: Survival Ascended console commands on PC
On PC, you can access the console command screen by pressing the "~" key (without quotation marks). This will display an empty black space with a blinking cursor. Simply enter your desired command, and a list of suggested commands will appear. You can either choose from the suggestions or continue typing your own command. Activate the command by pressing "Enter" when you have finished. Keep in mind that you may need to open the game's main menu by pressing the "Escape" key beforehand, although I managed to access the console commands without doing so.
