What's the difference between the Chitin Helmet GFI code and its blueprint path?

The GFI code PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Chitin/PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet.PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Chitin Helmet.

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Chitin Helmet?

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 Chitin Helmet spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

How do I spawn multiple Chitin Helmet at once?

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

Can I spawn the Chitin Helmet over RCON or on a dedicated server?

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet 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.

Is the Chitin Helmet blueprint path case-sensitive?

Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Armor/Chitin/PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet.PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemArmor_ChitinHelmet 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).
