Auto Executing Commands

Before a command can be executed, it first needs to be declared in the create event for obj_console.

One of the handiest features of the developer console is auto executing commands. If you frequently need to execute a bunch of commands when you start your game, it can be a chore to type them all out every time. Instead you can create a text file with all the commands you wish to execute, which will then be read when you run your game.

Create a new text file called autoexec.cfg in your game's build folder (if testing your game on Windows, you can find this folder by entering %localappdata% into the address bar in Windows Explorer).

You can enter commands you wish to executed in this file. Each command should be put on a new line, and should be formatted as expected by the console:

wmode;1
score;25
create_powerup;50;50
