A handheld light source that emits a charge effect, useful for exploring dark areas and combat situations.

Is the Charge Lantern spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Can I get the Charge Lantern without spawning it?

Yes. The Charge Lantern can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.

How do I spawn a higher-quality Charge Lantern?

The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Charge Lantern. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.

What do the numbers in the Charge Lantern spawn command mean?

In cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge 1 0 0, the code identifies the Charge Lantern, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Charge Lantern.

Can I spawn the Charge Lantern over RCON or on a dedicated server?

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.

What is the blueprint path for the Charge Lantern?

The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge/PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge.PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge/PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge.PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.

In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Charge Lantern spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

The GFI code PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/Aberration/WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge/PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge.PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Charge Lantern.

How do I spawn multiple Charge Lantern at once?

Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Charge Lantern. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.

How do I spawn the Charge Lantern as a blueprint instead of a finished item?

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).

Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.

How do I add the Charge Lantern to a starter kit or loadout?

Include cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponRadioactiveLanternCharge 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.

What is the GFI code for the Charge Lantern?

Why isn't my Charge Lantern spawn command working?

Does the Charge Lantern spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
