Command Console
« on: November 28, 2013, 12:09:43 AM »
So I missed my enter key putting in some data for a planet and I hit the "|\" key. It brought a dev/command console.
I tried a few commands like "help" and "quit" although nothing worked. What type of language do you guys use on this? ???

Oh, you found the secret door! :D

But seriously...
The console is useful for us developers, since we can control aspects of the sandbox that might not be exposed in the user interface.
There is no specific language involved, instead the console understands a custom catalog of commands.

Yes, in the future, maybe not very soon tho, you will get a full list of all those commands (and more).

Nice catch! Knowing this, we know that the commands that are used in the console are CASE sensitive.
