About

ToggleGun activates or deactivates the admin gun, a tool that lets you point at creatures, players, or structures and perform actions on them. When active, you can spawn dinos, apply buffs or debuffs, teleport, or destroy targets without typing additional commands.

Run the command once to enable the gun and again to disable it. The admin gun is one of the fastest ways to manage gameplay on a live server, far quicker than typing out spawn or summon commands for each creature or item.
