Remove all players from the AIs ignore list.

Action

ai.critters_frametime

Target frame time in seconds for the Critters budget

ai.critters_startle_distance

ai.debugmovedraw

Whether ai.selectnpc and ai.movenpc draw their DDraw markers - turn it off to keep the view clean while commanding NPCs.

Gait ai.movenpc uses when called without one - set it to walk to keep commanded NPCs at walking speed. One of: sneak, walk, jog, run, sprint, fullsprint

ai.debugmovespacing

Gap in metres between the destinations ai.movenpc hands out when more than one NPC is selected, so they don't all path to the same point.

ai.defaultinterpolationdelay

(Generated) Default network interpolation delay in seconds applied to NPC entity movement; lower values reduce visual lag at the cost of jitter on unstable connections

ai.deselectnpc

Removes the NPC you are looking at from your selection and hands it back to its normal AI.

Action

ai.designingenabled

ai.effectaiweapons

(Generated) When enabled, AI weapons deal real damage when fired; disable to make NPC weapons harmless for testing AI behaviour safely

ai.frametime

(Generated) Target frame time budget in seconds for AI tick processing; default is 5s in production (1s in editor) to cap CPU usage per AI frame

ai.fsm_frametime

Target frame time in seconds for the default FSMComponent budget

ai.groups

(Generated) When enabled, AI group logic is active allowing NPCs to coordinate as squads; disable to make all NPCs act as independent individuals

ai.ignoreplayers

(Generated) When enabled, AI entities ignore player presence and will not target or react to players; useful for building/testing without NPC interference

aiinformationzone.usesimpleloscheck

ai.killanimals

(Generated) Kills all animal NPCs and animal NPC2 entities currently on the server

Action

ai.killscientists

(Generated) Kills all scientist NPCs, tunnel dwellers, and non-animal NPC2 entities currently on the server

Action

ai.logissues

(Generated) When enabled, logs AI-related warnings and issues to the server console; useful for diagnosing pathfinding and brain errors

aimanager.ai_dormant

If ai_dormant is true, any npc outside the range of players will render itself dormant and take up less resources, but wildlife won't simulate as well.

aimanager.ai_dormant_max_wakeup_per_tick

ai_dormant_max_wakeup_per_tick defines the maximum number of dormant agents we will wake up in a single tick. (default: 30)

aimanager.ai_htn_animal_tick_budget

ai_htn_animal_tick_budget defines the maximum amount of milliseconds ticking htn animal agents are allowed to consume. (default: 4 ms)

aimanager.ai_htn_player_junkpile_tick_budget

ai_htn_player_junkpile_tick_budget defines the maximum amount of milliseconds ticking htn player junkpile agents are allowed to consume. (default: 4 ms)

aimanager.ai_htn_player_tick_budget

ai_htn_player_tick_budget defines the maximum amount of milliseconds ticking htn player agents are allowed to consume. (default: 4 ms)

aimanager.ai_htn_use_agency_tick

If ai_htn_use_agency_tick is true, the ai manager's agency system will tick htn agents at the ms budgets defined in ai_htn_player_tick_budget and ai_htn_animal_tick_budget. If it's false, each agent registers with the invoke system individually, with no frame-budget restrictions. (default: true)

aimanager.ai_to_player_distance_wakeup_range

If an agent is beyond this distance to a player, it's flagged for becoming dormant.

aimanager.nav_disable

If set to true the navmesh won't generate.. which means Ai that uses the navmesh won't be able to move

aimanager.nav_obstacles_carve_state

nav_obstacles_carve_state defines which obstacles can carve the terrain. 0 - No carving, 1 - Only player construction carves, 2 - All obstacles carve.

aimanager.nav_wait

If true we'll wait for the navmesh to generate before completely starting the server. This might cause your server to hitch and lag as it generates in the background.

aimanager.pathfindingiterationsperframe

The maximum amount of nodes processed each frame in the asynchronous pathfinding process. Increasing this value will cause the paths to be processed faster, but can cause some hiccups in frame rate. Default value is 100, a good range for tuning is between 50 and 500.

aimanager.setdestination_navmesh_failsafe

If set to true, npcs will attempt to place themselves on the navmesh if not on a navmesh when set destination is called.

aimountedweaponcontroller.burst_length

aimountedweaponcontroller.fire_rate

aimountedweaponcontroller.time_between_bursts

ai.move

(Generated) When enabled, AI entities move toward their NavMesh destinations; disable to freeze NPC movement while keeping brain logic running

ai.movenpc

Orders every NPC selected with ai.selectnpc to path to the position you are looking at. Optional gait: sneak, walk, jog, run, sprint, fullsprint - defaults to ai.debugmovegait.

Action

The minimum number of building blocks a building needs to consist of for this optimization to be applied. (default: 25)

ai.nav_carve_size_multiplier

The size multiplier applied to the size of the carve volume. The smaller the value, the tighter the skirt around foundation edges, but too small and animals can attack through walls. (default: 4)

ai.nav_carve_use_building_optimization

If nav_carve_use_building_optimization is true, we attempt to reduce the amount of navmesh carves for a building. (default: false)

ai.navthink

(Generated) When enabled, AI entities update their NavMesh agent destinations each tick; disable to freeze AI movement while keeping brain logic running

ai.npc_alertness_drain_rate

npc_alertness_drain_rate define the rate at which we drain the alertness level of an NPC when there are no enemies in sight. (Default: 0.01)

ai.npc_alertness_to_aim_modifier

This is multiplied with the current alertness (0-10) to decide how long it will take for the NPC to deliberately miss again. (default: 0.33)

ai.npc_alertness_zero_detection_mod

npc_alertness_zero_detection_mod define the threshold of visibility required to detect an enemy when alertness is zero. (Default: 0.5)

ai.npcbarksenabled

ai.npc_check_spawner_is_on_navmesh
