All The Forest Cheats And Console Commands

Compared to the best The Forest mods, which have some wild and wacky possibilities like altering the tides and respawning trees, these console commands are more straightforward. While you need to take some steps to enable The Forest cheats and console commands, which we’ve outlined at the bottom of this guide, once you know how to do it everything is quite simple. You can skip the initial The Forest plane crash sequence, teleport to any coordinates of your choosing, kill animals at the push of a button, and even enable god mode.

Basic commands

These cheats don’t require the additional instructions below, and are instead typed into the main menu, rather than into the dev console. That means they’ll also work on consoles if you have a keyboard attached:

ironforest – makes buildings indestructible meatmode – disables all cheats rawmeatmode – when you die, save game is permanently deleted (note that this no longer works in the updated Steam version of the game) regrowmode – when your character sleeps, 10% of fallen trees regrow if the stump remains veganmode – when enabled, enemies only spawn in caves vegetarianmode – when enabled, enemies only spawn at night woodpaste – resets holes made by hole cutter or crane
