Frequently Asked Questions

What's the full blueprint path of the Scarecrow?

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

What items are related to the Scarecrow?

What's the Scarecrow GFI short code?

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

What's the Scarecrow class name?

The class name for the Scarecrow is PrimalItemStructure_Scarecrow_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 Scarecrow spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Yes. The Scarecrow'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 does the Scarecrow do in ARK: Survival Ascended?

A decorative structure that deters creatures from your base when placed and rendered, spawnable via GFI on any map.

Why isn't my Scarecrow spawn command working?

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

How do I open the console to spawn the Scarecrow?

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 Scarecrow spawn code from this page.

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

Include cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_Scarecrow 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.

Can I get the Scarecrow without spawning it?

Yes. The Scarecrow 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.

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

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_Scarecrow 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 Scarecrow blueprint path case-sensitive?

Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Structures/Halloween/PrimalItemStructure_Scarecrow.PrimalItemStructure_Scarecrow'" 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 Scarecrow class used for in mods or spawn tools?

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

What do the numbers in the Scarecrow spawn command mean?

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

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

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

Does the Scarecrow 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 Scarecrow then spawns the same way.

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

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

How do I spawn a higher-quality Scarecrow?

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

How do I spawn multiple Scarecrow at once?

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

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

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