How to use the command console in Satisfactory
Step 1: Enable the Console
Unlike some games where you need to edit files or make shortcuts, Satisfactory keeps things simple. Here’s how to enable the console:
- Press Control, Shift and L. Hold down these three keys at the same time (
Ctrl + Shift + L). You won’t see a confirmation on your screen, but trust that it’s working! The console will remain enabled until you exit the game.
Step 2: Open the Console Window
Now that the console is enabled, it’s time to start entering commands:
- Press the
~(tilde) key. This will open the console window where you can start typing commands. - Do you need more space? If you’re entering longer commands or want a better view, press the tilde key a second time to expand the console window so you can see what you’re entering into the Command Prompt console.
Step 3: Start Using Commands
With the console window open, you can type any commands you need and press Enter to activate them.
There are a lot of console commands in Satisfactory that can help you force various functions – this is great if your game is buggy and you’re struggling to play. Bugs aren’t common in Satisfactory, but the game was only released on September 10, 2024, so it would be unusual to find any. If you find bugs, always report them to the developers as soon as possible – they can’t fix the problem if they don’t know it’s happening, after all!
