About

The Metal Ramp is a structural building piece used to create angled surfaces and access routes between different elevations on your base. It snaps to other metal structures and provides a stable, durable ramp surface.

Spawn it directly into inventory with either its item ID or GFI code. Since it is a structure, you will need to place it in the world and complete construction before it becomes functional. Metal ramps require standard metal building resources to craft in a smithy or fabricator.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I spawn the Metal Ramp over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 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.
How do I spawn the Metal Ramp as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 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).
Is the Metal Ramp blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp.PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
How do I open the console to spawn the Metal Ramp?
On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Metal Ramp spawn code from this page.
Is the Metal Ramp spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Metal Ramp's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.
What do the numbers in the Metal Ramp spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 1 0 0, the code identifies the Metal Ramp, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Metal Ramp.
What is the item ID for the Metal Ramp?
The numeric item ID for the Metal Ramp is 174. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 174 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.
What's the difference between the Metal Ramp GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp.PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Metal Ramp.
Is the Metal Ramp a DLC item or part of the base game?
The Metal Ramp is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Metal Ramp?
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 Metal Ramp spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
What items are related to the Metal Ramp?
See the Related section at the bottom of this page for items commonly used alongside the Metal Ramp, or open Browse Games to explore the full ARK: Survival Ascended database.
Why isn't my Metal Ramp spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
How do I add the Metal Ramp to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 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.
Does the Metal Ramp spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Metal Ramp then spawns the same way.
Can I get the Metal Ramp without spawning it?
Yes. The Metal Ramp 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.
What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Metal Ramp?
Both spawn the Metal Ramp. gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 174 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.
How do I give the Metal Ramp to another player?
Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 174 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 174 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Metal Ramp during events and giveaways.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Metal Ramp?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Metal Ramp. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
What is the GFI code for the Metal Ramp?
The GFI code for the Metal Ramp is PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.

What's the full blueprint path of the Metal Ramp?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp.PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp.PrimalItemStructure_MetalRamp'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
How do I give myself the Metal Ramp with a cheat command?
