Players cruising the vibrant and deadly alien ocean world inSubnautica can expect a ton of fascinating creatures, an interesting story, and, sometimes, even a few glitches.

Thankfully, there are a ton of console commands that one can use to rectify these issues. For many of these, it is useful to have a list of the Spawn IDs, as these are the strings of text that are tied to each and every item in the game, whether they are a resource, tool, or a piece of furniture.

Using Spawn IDs

After one has opened up the console command menu, there are a few ways that the player can use a Spawn ID depending on what it represents in the game. There is the "Item" command, which places the specified number of an item into the player's inventory; the "Spawn" command, which places an item in front of the player; and the "Unlock" command, where the game will unlock the specified blueprint in the player's database. Here are examples of how each should look when used properly in the consolewith the solar panel item as a placeholder:
