Template:CommandMode/Translations

Command Mode

You can access command mode by typing : (colon) in a single-player or multiplayer scenario.

If typing a colon is not feasible in your keyboard layout, you can reassign the hotkey in Preferences, or edit game.cfg.

Note: It is possible to highlight, copy, and paste text in the command entry field.

Several vi-like commands are available in command mode. They are defined in menu_events.cpp. There is a :help command that lists all available commands, and :help foo displays more information about command foo. This is more reliable than the list that follows here:

:q!
quit the scenario (without prompting)
:w
save the game (without prompting)
:wq
save the game and quit the scenario (without prompting)
:refresh
redraw the screen
:droid [side] [on|off]
toggle player on side between human and AI player. The player/client who controls that side needs to issue this command. If you don't provide side, the current side is assumed.
:idle [side] [on|off]
toggle player side between idle mode and not. This command should normally be needed only for debugging purposes.
:controller [side]
debugging command which displays the current controller type of a side.
:muteall
toggles muting/silencing of all observers on/off
:mute [username]
mute a specific observer. If no username is supplied the muted usernames are displayed.
:unmute [username]
unmute a specific observer. If no username is given everyone is unmuted. (Doesn't effect the muteall setting.)
:kick username
kick a user in multiplayer. They will be able to rejoin the game. Generally a friendly way to remove someone who is having connection or other difficulties.
:ban username
kick and ban a user in multiplayer by the IP address used by that username. Can be used on users not in the game but on the server. (Of course they won't be kicked then.)
:unban username
unban a user by the IP address used by that username. Can be used on users not in the game but on the server.
:control side username
change the controller for side (write here the number of the side, the side must be controlled by you) to username (write here the nick of the player or observer)
:give_control
launch a friendly gui to assist with assigning control of sides to players
:clear
clear chat messages. Also possible with ctrl+x
:debug
switch debug mode on (does not work in multiplayer). Debug mode is turned off by quitting the game or using the :nodebug command.
:theme
bring up theme selection menu
:nosaves
turns off the autosave function
:show_coordinates (or :sc)
Overlay x,y coordinates on map tiles.
:show_terrain_codes (or :tc)
Overlay terrain codes on visible map tiles.
:discover/undiscover
Show all hidden unit descriptions in the in-game Help, or forget the known ones.
