Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Tek Generator used for?

The Tek Generator is a placeable structure that serves as the primary power source for Tek-tier equipment and electrical systems. It consumes element or element shards to produce the energy needed to run Tek transmitters, Tek doors, automated defenses, and other advanced machinery.

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

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

A Tek-tier power structure that generates electricity for Tek devices and automated systems on your server.

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

Include cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_TekGenerator 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.

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

Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Tek Generator by its class PrimalItemStructure_TekGenerator_C or GFI PrimalItemStructure_TekGenerator. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.

Is the Tek Generator a DLC item or part of the base game?

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

Can I get the Tek Generator without spawning it?

Yes. The Tek Generator 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 is the GFI code for the Tek Generator?

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

What items are related to the Tek Generator?

Does the Tek Generator 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 Tek Generator then spawns the same way.

What's the full blueprint path of the Tek Generator?

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

What do the numbers in the Tek Generator spawn command mean?

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

How do I spawn the Tek Generator in ARK: Survival Ascended?

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemStructure_TekGenerator 1 0 0. That gives you one Tek Generator 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.

How do I spawn multiple Tek Generator at once?

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

How current is the Tek Generator spawn info?

What is the class name for the Tek Generator?

The class name for the Tek Generator is PrimalItemStructure_TekGenerator_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.

How do I spawn a higher-quality Tek Generator?

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

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

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

Why isn't my Tek Generator spawn command working?

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

How do I open the console to spawn the Tek Generator?

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 Tek Generator spawn code from this page.

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

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

Is the Tek Generator spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Yes. The Tek Generator'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 Tek Generator blueprint path case-sensitive?

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

Where can I copy the Tek Generator spawn command?

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

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Tek Generator?

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 Tek Generator spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
