How to Use Devcommands on Your Valheim Server

Devcommands (previously known as cheat commands) in Valheim allow server administrators to manipulate the game environment, spawn items, and manage players directly through the in-game console. This guide will show you how to install Devcommands, enable them, and use them on your Valheim server hosted with BananaServers.

Step 1: Install Devcommands on Your Server

BepInEx is pre-installed on all BananaServers Valheim servers, so no additional installation is required for server-side functionality. Simply follow the steps below to enable Devcommands.

Step 2: Install Devcommands on Your Client

Download BepInExPack for Valheim from a trusted modding site like NexusMods or Thunderstore.
Extract the downloaded files to your Valheim installation folder:
- Typically located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim.
If required, place the Devcommands plugin .dll file in the /BepInEx/plugins folder.
Launch the game to ensure the mod loads correctly.

Step 3: Enable Console Commands

To use Devcommands, the in-game console must be enabled:

Launch Valheim on your computer.
In your Steam Library, right-click Valheim and select Properties.
In the General tab, find the Launch Options section.
Enter the following in the text box:

-console

Close the properties window and launch Valheim.
