Debugcommands

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-21

Overview

The debugcommands module provides an extensive collection of console commands and helper functions designed for developers and testers working with Don't Starve Together. This component serves as the primary interface for debugging game systems, spawning test entities, manipulating world state, verifying UI components, and exporting data for analysis. Commands cover entity spawning (prefabs, layouts, static structures), component manipulation (health, sanity, domestication, skills), world system control (weather, season, moon phase, moonstorms), event testing (Lava Arena, Year of the Catcoon, achievements), and data export utilities (scrapbook generation, hash collision testing, topology visualization). Most functions operate on the master simulation and require console access. The module integrates with numerous game components including riftspawner, moonstormmanager, domesticatable, skinner, combat, inventory, and workable to enable comprehensive testing scenarios.

Usage example

-- Spawn a grid of test entities at console position
d_spawnlist({"beefalo", "spider", "tree"}, 3)

-- Set player skin mode and clothing
d_skin_mode("normal_skin")
d_clothing("winter_hat")

-- Start a moonstorm at current position
d_startmoonstorm()

-- Test combat DPS on selected entity
d_testdps(10, ConsoleWorldEntityUnderMouse())

-- Generate scrapbook data for all prefabs
d_createscrapbookdata(true)

-- Unlock all achievements for testing
d_unlockallachievements()
