Editor’s Note: Cheating in Roguelikes

How to Enable the Console in DuneCrawl

To access the debug menu, standard keys usually won’t work out of the box. Try these methods:

1. Method A (Launch Options):
   1. Right-click DuneCrawl in Steam > Properties.
   2. In Launch Options, type: -console or -cheats.
   3. Launch the game and press ~ (Tilde) or F1.
2. Method B (Modding):
   1. Install BepInEx (Unity Mod Loader).
   2. Download a “UnityExplorer” plugin.
   3. This forces a debug UI to appear overlaying the game.

(Too complicated? The console is often hard-locked in indie games. Skip to the XMODhub Solution below for an easier method.)

Essential Console Commands List

If you manage to open the command line, here are the cheats that can save your run.

• god or god_mode 1 – Your crawler takes zero damage from enemies or sandstorms.
• restore_ap – Instantly refills Action Points (AP) for the current turn.
• kill_all – Eliminates all visible enemies on the grid.
• no_cooldown – Skills can be used instantly without waiting.

• add_water [amount] – Adds crucial water supplies (e.g., add_water 50).
• add_scrap [amount] – Adds currency for upgrades.
• add_fuel [amount] – Refills your vehicle’s fuel tank.
• reveal_map – Clears the fog of war for the current floor.

DuneCrawl Item IDs List

To use the give_item [ID] command, you need the internal code names. These are case-sensitive:

• Consumables:
  • Item_Medkit_Small
  • Item_Water_Ration
  • Item_Fuel_Canister
• Weapons:
  • Wpn_Railgun_T1
  • Wpn_Laser_Cutter
• Upgrades:
  • Mod_Engine_V2
  • Chip_Targeting_AI

(Tired of guessing IDs? The XMODhub Trainer has a built-in item spawner menu, so you don’t need to memorize codes.)

Advanced: Save File Location & Character Unlocks

Target Keyword: DuneCrawl save file location, Unlock all characters

For players who want to manually backup their progress to avoid Permadeath, or edit files to unlock classes:

On Windows, you can typically find it here:

• C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\LocalLow\[DeveloperName]\DuneCrawl\Saves\

There is no direct console command to unlock all classes instantly.

• The Hard Way: You must manually edit the hex code in your save file (High risk of corruption).
• The Easy Way: Use the XMODhub Trainer’s “Unlock All Blueprints” feature to instantly access all crawlers and weapons without grinding.

The Problem: Why Console Commands Disable Achievements

Using the developer console comes with a cost:

1. Achievement Lock: Typing god usually flags your save file, permanently disabling Steam Achievements for beating the game.
2. Save Corruption: In a Permadeath game, one wrong command can glitch the level generation, forcing you to delete your save and restart from scratch.
3. Inconvenience: Re-typing restore_ap every single turn breaks the flow of battle.

The Better Alternative: XMODhub Trainer (No Typing)

Stop memorizing codes. XMODhub acts as a visual overlay that bypasses the need for the developer console entirely.

FAQ

Q: Can I use console commands to skip levels?

A: Yes, the command is usually next_level or force_exit, but this often causes bugs with quest progression. XMODhub’s “Instant Win” feature is safer.

Q: Is there a cheat for Infinite Action Points (AP)?

A: Yes, but typing it every turn is tedious. The XMODhub Trainer locks your AP to max, letting you move and shoot infinitely without typing.

Q: Does the trainer work on the Steam Deck?

A: Yes! XMODhub is optimized for Steam Deck users, allowing you to toggle cheats via the overlay without a keyboard.
