About

ForcePlayerToJoinTribe immediately assigns a player to a tribe regardless of their current membership or standing. This is a cheat command and requires admin privileges.

Supply the player's UE4 ID and the exact name of the destination tribe. The player will join that tribe instantly. If the tribe does not exist, the command will fail, the tribe must already be created. This command is useful for fixing tribe assignments after transfers, managing tribe rosters on PvE servers, or resolving tribe-related disputes without requiring player cooperation.
