StarCitizen:Console commands
More actions
In Star Citizen the Console can be accessed at any time by pressing the ~ key.
This allows you to see the lines being actively written out to the game's log file as well as the ability to execute commands or modify certain command variables as listed out below.
Note that If the player creates a USER.cfg file in the "\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE" folder with Con_restricted = 0, it allows for more commands, and adding a second line such as r_ssdo = 3 sets the SSDO value starting the game with it every time.
Many command variables will have a simple enabled/disabled value represented by a 0 (disabled/off) or a 1 (enabled/on).

1 = Shows some basic information 2 = Shows additional info (Session, StarCitizen:Shard ID, CPU load, etc) and everything above. 3 = Shows additional info (RAM, VRAM usage, etc.) and everything above. 4 = GPU Load stats and everything above. |
| r_DisplaySessionInfo | 0 | When turned on (set to 1) a QR Code is displayed in the upper right corner which can be used by CIG to gain additional info during bug reports. |
| r_enable_full_gpu_sync | 0 | Enabling this syncs the CPU with the GPU after every driver call. This means if one call crashes the GPU we know exactly which one it was, but this comes at a massive hit to performance.
It's very useful if someone can consistently reproduce a GPU crash. They can enable this setting just before the crash occurs and then submit the error report.<ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref> |
