The game console allows you to modify the game experience in various ways. It is primarily useful for (and intended for) development and debugging purposes.
Accessing the console[edit | edit source]
To access the console, open the main menu by clicking the "hamburger" icon (☰) in the upper left corner of the game window or by pressing Escape, and then press q.
Some commands operate on a selected component. In these cases you will have to click the "hamburger" icon (
☰) as Escape will deselect the selected component and prevent the command from functioning correctly.Available commands[edit | edit source]
dev_mode[edit | edit source]
dev_mode has two states: dev_mode on or dev_mode off. When enabled, several changes to the game's interface occur:
- The component selection menu is available on the main map.
- Of particular interest is the "Level component" component under the DEV menu. This allows you to link custom levels to the main map.
- All components are available on all levels:
- Indelible (red) components, such as 4-bit input.
- Sandbox-only components, such as File loader.
- Normal components that are unlocked further into the campaign, for example placing a word adder in the Half Adder' level.
- Indelible (red) components can also be deleted from levels.
