About

ScriptCommand passes a text argument directly to the game's scripting system, letting you trigger game-mode-specific commands or custom server logic. This is a cheat command and requires admin privileges.

Use it when you need to run commands specific to your server's game mode or custom modifications that fall outside ARK's standard command set. The command itself takes only one argument: the text of the command or script you want to execute. Behavior and available options depend entirely on what your server's game mode or scripts support.

Frequently Asked Questions

What arguments does the ScriptCommand command take?
