The fantasy world that survival simulator fans have been craving is now in Early Access with Dark And Light, which will have you gathering resources, constructing buildings, and taming creatures.

Dark And Light has more than a few similarities to Ark, including the list of console admin commands that let you either outright cheat or just spawn specific items for crafting.

How to Access Admin Console Commands in Dark and Light

To open the Dark And Light admin console command section, you just need to tap a single key. By default, this is set to the+ key, but you can change the key binding to anything you want — like the more industry standard Tab.

Navigate to the Key Bindings section of the Options menu and look for the “Toggle Console” entry to change the key for accessing the admin area.

Now just tap that key and a black bar appears on the bottom of the screen letting you type in specific commands. Type enablecheats and hit Enter to get going.

Basic Dark And Light Cheats

The basic Dark And Light cheats are all very similar to Ark — so if you’ve been playing that survival simulator already, you should know the commands by heart at this point.

After enabling cheats and toggling on the admin console command section, just enter any of these codes to breeze through single-player local server experience:

  • cheat god – enables invincibility mode so no enemy can kill you
  • cheat infinitestats – similar to the previous one, this gives you highest possible stats for everything
  • cheat fly – fly into the air rather than walk
  • cheat ghost – similar to the previous one, except this lets you move through any object or barrier
  • cheat destroyallenemies – removes all enemies from the entire game, although they will respawn
  • cheat giveresources – automatically get 50 of all resources

 Stab me all you want – with god mode on its doesn’t matter!

Spawning Dark And Light Items

After enabling cheat codes, open up the admin console command area and use the GiveItemNum command to force spawn a specific item. The pattern to use is as follows:

GiveItemNum (item ID) (quantity) 1 0

The item codes are listed below, and the last number refers to whether you are getting the item or a blueprint for the item. For the blueprint, switch the final 0 to a 1. 

For instance, if you wanted 10 Foundations in your inventory, type GiveItemNum 411 10 1 0 and hit Enter while the admin console area is active.

Note that some users have reported having to type cheat before it like with the other cheats, so if the command doesn’t work, use Cheat GiveItemNum instead.
