This information is reliable as of patch 2.0.200.81.

A wish is a command that can be executed by the player through a console accessible with a key binding (by default not bound). They are generally considered debug commands, but may also be of use setting up special runs or for whatever else the player would like to use them for.

Binding the wish command

To bind wishing to a key combination:

1. From the main view, press Escape to open the main menu.
2. Select the Key Mapping menu option.
3. Use the arrow keys to scroll to the Debug section.
4. Scroll to Wish and press Enter.
5. Press whatever key combination you would like to access the wish console with.
   1. For example, Ctrl+Shift+W.

(The game may prompt you if your chosen combination is already taken by something else.)

Now it should be possible to wish from the main view.

Usage Notes

Most wish commands are strictly case-sensitive. Keep that in mind when using any of the wishes below. For example, wishing dismember:Tail will dismember your tail (if you have a tail), but wishing Dismember:Tail will spawn a schematics drafter because the latter wish does not exactly match a wish command.

Entering any input that does not exactly match a wish command will perform a lexigraphic search (using a Levenshtein distance algorithm) on object blueprints, mutations, quests, and zones, and attempt the best match it can find. Matching on an object blueprint spawns that object; matching on a mutation grants that mutation; matching on a quest begins that quest; and matching on a zone teleports to that zone.

A very common problem that occurs when a wish goes wrong is that your character will gain an undesirable mutation with a name that is somewhat similar to your wish command. If this happens to you, use the mutationbgone wish to remove the mutation.

List of wishes

Here wishes are sorted into headings based on what they do. Consider using the table of contents at the beginning of this article to jump to a topic of interest.

In the names of wishes, < angle brackets > indicate a blank to fill in and [ square brackets ] indicate an optional part.

Special modes

All special modes are off by default. Once turned on, they remain in effect across game sessions until either they're turned off or the game is closed. They can be turned off by using the same wish that turned them on.

calm

Turn off AI

In Calm Mode, AI behavior does not run. This causes most creatures to remain in place and do nothing, but, for example, segmented mirthworms will continue to spawn more mirthworms.

cool

Turn off cooldowns

In Cool Mode, the player using abilities does not cause them to go on cooldown. Abilities already on cooldown will cool down normally. Other creatures' abilities still go on cooldown.

idkfa

Become nigh-impervious to common threats

In God Mode:

• You cannot lose hit points.
• Your hydration is always at maximum.
• Your attacks that penetrate instantly kill.
• You cannot become lost from moving on world map tiles.
• You can move through normally impassible objects, such as walls.
• You can automove (such as autoexplore) while a hostile creature is visible.

However, you can still die from effects that kill without inflicting damage, such as the gaze of the lithofex.

In all of the aforementioned points, "you" refers to the player body at any given time. Swapping bodies after activating God Mode will cause it to start applying to the new body.

One special mode, identified in the key mapping menu as ExploreZone, is not accessible through a wish. To access it, follow the instructions for binding the wish command, but substitute ExploreZone in place of Wish. ExploreZone causes the entire zone the player body is in to remain revealed while it's active.

Note that the player may still find additional dynamically-generated location-type secrets if they explore the world after using this command, such as the location of randomly-generated dromad caravans or weeps. Ruins and villages are entirely determined during initial world generation, so you will no longer discover any new ruins or villages after using this wish.

revealsecret:<secret id>

Reveals a specific journal secret.

Most journal secrets are assigned a random identifier, so you can only use this wish to reveal certain locations that have a unique, predetermined journal secret ID.

The following locations have a predetermined secret ID that you can use with this wish:

• flattened remains: $skrefcorpse
• oddly-hued glowpad: $glowpadmerchant

relic

smartitem:<id>

This article has information that is missing or not up to par.
Reason: Which qualities?

An object blueprint is chosen from among blueprints with certain qualities using a Levenshtein distance algorithm, and an object of the closest matching blueprint is created in the same cell as the player body.

This object has a unique name and is sapient, in a distinct way from those animated with Spray-a-Brain. Each one likes one thing and hates another, and has a feeling towards the player quantified as a positive or negative integer or zero.

Speculation: There is no apparent way to influence the player attitude. It's likely that this feature is incomplete.

base type can be most any object blueprint. If you specify something that normally doesn't have a brain, it will be given one.

clearach!!!

Erase your achievements

The wish will prompt if you really want to clear your achievements. If you select yes:

• The game will attempt to remove all of your Steam achievements for the game. This will fail silently if the game session is not currently attached to Steam.
• Many of the game's global state variables that are preserved across sessions will be reset to 0, such as the count of how many snapjaws you've killed.
• The game will attempt to reset all of your Steam stats for the game to 0. Again, this will fail if Steam is not attached.

playeronly

Remove everyone but the player from the action queue

The action queue is the collection of game actors that are given the opportunity to take actions. Removing someone from the action queue means they will not be able to take any actions until they get added back to the queue somehow. This wish removes everyone but the player, so that the player is the only one who can act.

Moving between zones immediately flushes the action queue, such that moving across a zone boundary and back will undo the effect of this wish.

Changing bodies puts both your new body and your old body in the action queue. This means that wishing playeronly followed by swap will still allow the body you leave to act on its own. You can prevent this by wishing playeronly again.

This wish is similar to but distinct from calm.

pluralize:<word>

Get the plural form of a word

A guess at the plural form of the word entered is shown in a pop-up. The wish is aware of some irregular plurals, such as “deer”, but largely applies rules based on the final letters of the phrase entered. For phrases including the word “of”, the plural suffix is added to the part of the phrase before “of”, rather than at the end.

This may not be an exhaustive list.
