Console

From EU3 Wiki

The ingame console is used to trigger events manually, and for cheat or debug commands.

To bring up the console press the § key (if available), alternatively ALT+0167 (num keypad) or ALT+21 (num keypad) will work.

Since notebooks normally don't have a dedicated numpad, you need to use the numpad 'embedded' in the regular keyboard (e.g. keys m , . / j k l ; u i o p 7 8 9 0). Depending on the notebook you may need to either use the 'Fn' key or activate numlock or both to access this numpad. For example, many people will need to use Alt+Fn+kj to open the console. Others may need to activate numlock (which may itself require the Fn key such as Fn+ScrLk on a Thinkpad X61 or Fn+F6 on a MacBook) then use Alt+kj. Some notebooks may even require Alt+fn+kj with numlock activated.

The different commands are:

merchant - Sets your number of merchants to 5.

colonist - Sets your number of colonists to 5.

spy - Sets your number of spies to 5.

diplomat - Sets your number of diplomats to 5.

missionary - Sets your number of missionaries to 5.

cash - Gives you 5000 ducats.

help - Displays "no help for you" message.

fow <province ID> - Toggle Fog of War on/off for the given province. (Leave out the < and >)

native <province ID> - Makes natives attack a certain province. (Leave out the < and >)

event <event ID> - Starts an event even if the trigger is not met. (Leave out the < and >)

For the event command you can specify a province ID or a country ID, depending on the type of event. For example, typing in event 1054 ENG (case sensitive) would fire event 1054 ("Become an elector") for England. Missing out ENG would make the event fire for the player.

tag <country ID> - Switch and play as a different country without reloading (note that this sometimes leads to ctd's, especially when clicking on the "war overview" shield with NA). (Leave out the < and >)

die <country ID> - The country's current ruler dies (Leave out the < and >)
