Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

How do I spawn multiple Radio at once?

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

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Radio?

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 Radio spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

What is the GFI code for the Radio?

The GFI code for the Radio is PrimalItemRadio. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemRadio 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.

What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Radio?

Both spawn the Radio. gfi PrimalItemRadio matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 140 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

Does the Radio 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 Radio then spawns the same way.

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

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

What does the Radio do in ARK: Survival Ascended?

A communication device that lets players transmit and receive radio signals across the map without line of sight.

How do I spawn the Radio by its item ID?

Run cheat GiveItemNum 140 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.

When was the Radio data last updated?

The Radio entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.

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

Include cheat gfi PrimalItemRadio 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.

How do I open the console to spawn the Radio?

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 Radio spawn code from this page.

Is the Radio spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Yes. The Radio'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.

Is the Radio blueprint path case-sensitive?

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

What is the Radio used for?

The Radio is an equippable item that enables long-range communication between players. When held and activated, it broadcasts your voice to all players tuned to the same frequency, making it essential for coordinating large groups or raids without requiring direct visual contact.

How do I give the Radio to another player?

Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 140 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 140 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Radio during events and giveaways.

What items are related to the Radio?

What do the numbers in the Radio spawn command mean?

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

How do I spawn a higher-quality Radio?

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

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

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemRadio 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 class name for the Radio?

The class name for the Radio is PrimalItemRadio_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.

Is the Radio a DLC item or part of the base game?

The Radio is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.

What's the numeric item ID of the Radio?

The numeric item ID for the Radio is 140. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 140 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.

Which game is the Radio from?

The Radio is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.

Can I get the Radio without spawning it?

Yes. The Radio 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.

Why isn't my Radio spawn command working?

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

What is the admin command to spawn the Radio?

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemRadio 1 0 0. That gives you one Radio instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.

Where can I copy the Radio spawn command?

Use the copy buttons in the Spawn Commands and Blueprint Path sections near the top of this page. Each copies the full Radio command to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into the console.

What is the Radio class used for in mods or spawn tools?

Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Radio by its class PrimalItemRadio_C or GFI PrimalItemRadio. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.

What is the blueprint path for the Radio?

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