Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't my Metal Triangle Foundation spawn command working?

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

What is the Metal Triangle Foundation used for?

The Metal Triangle Foundation is a craftable structural element that allows you to construct angled or sloped building sections. Unlike standard rectangular foundations, the triangular shape lets you create roofs, ramps, and diagonal walls without gaps.

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Metal Triangle Foundation?

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 Triangle Foundation spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

Is the Metal Triangle Foundation blueprint path case-sensitive?

Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/StructuresPlus/Structures/Foundations/Triangle/Metal/PrimalItemStructure_TriFoundation_Metal.PrimalItemStructure_TriFoundation_Metal'" 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 use GiveItemNum for the Metal Triangle Foundation?

Run cheat GiveItemNum 486 1 0 0 in the admin console. GiveItemNum spawns by numeric ID, which is precise for scripts and control panels. The trailing numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag.

How do I give myself the Metal Triangle Foundation with a cheat command?

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_TriFoundation_Metal 1 0 0. That gives you one Metal Triangle Foundation instantly.
