[Guide] How to enable and use the developer console.

[Pengu]

A very nice feature is the "warp" console command.
It allows you to set the simulation speed of the game.
For example...

Hi Cadde!

Very good command! Makes it really more realistic (in contrast to many gameplay videos where it looks like Formula One racing...).

Is it possible to define it inconfig.cfg to make it permanently? If so, what is the command? Just 'warp 0.9' or is there any prefix necessary?

What can I say have been playing this for just over a year now and didn't even realize how to do this now I know what everyone is talking about and a rough idea of how to do some things, do some of the commands still work in 1,17.30s?
Sorry for my lack of knowledge can I delete the coordinates in the config. file ?
regards

hello, my gotto is not working, I type gotto and put the exact coordinates in the console but nothing happens and under it it sais in red 'gotto -xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx etc. (where the x are the coordinates) unknown command' please help!

[Cadde]

First of all, it's "goto" not "gotto".
Try "goto Berlin" and if that works you can try coordinates.

[Dr doom]

Works now, thanks Cadde , all it was was me not reading it properly.

Nice tutorial!
But is there such a command, to pause time?
Like I put it at night, 1 o'clock because I want to drive at night, and it stays 1 o'clock untill I close the game?

[Cadde]

No, there is no pause time command besides issuing warp 0 (or 0.01) but that makes the entire simulation stationary.
If you want more darkness you need to make a mod that keeps the world dark for longer. I don't know about 24/7 darkness though, might not work out well with the rest of the world. (streetlights, sun, other drivers etc)

EDIT: That said, you can make a trainer using cheatengine to freeze time. I can't help you any further with finding the pointer to the current time though. I would expect it to be a 32 bit floating point value ranging from 0 to 24.

Okey, thanks

Apologies if this has been asked before but I couldn't find it. My search-fu is weak at this time of day.

Using goto on the Russian Open Spaces map, sometimes it works and sometimes it says "City 'xxxxxx' not found", where xxxxxx is what you've typed in. For example "goto Inta" works, but neither "goto Yugorsk" nor "goto ugorsk" does (the latter being the name of the .sii file in the def\city directory). And copying/pasting the Russian name in the Cyrillic alphabet doesn't work either. I only want to use it because so many of the ferries crash the game for me, honest.

Any solutions gratefully received.

[Cadde]

The goto command doesn't do cyrillics that well i think.
Same with "goto göteborg", while copying that works. (the command becomes "goto gteborg")
The console font doesn't have the "ö" character.

Another example...

goto Łódź
goto Lodz

If no combination of characters work for you on the Russian map then you would have to use coordinates or go to a city/village nearby and fly over.
