Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Dinosaur Gateway?

Both spawn the Dinosaur Gateway. gfi PrimalItemStructure_WoodGateframe matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 142 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

Why isn't my Dinosaur Gateway spawn command working?

Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemStructure_WoodGateframe), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_WoodGateframe 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
