This commands are used either in the command line while starting the server or in the GameUserSettings.INI. Not every command is working in the INI File or in the Command-Line. These lists are split in two different tables, but some of the settings from the INI work in the Command-Line and vice versa (lat. for other way).
If you don't know, where to put them: take a look at our Server Setup Tutorial.

| DayCycleSpeedScale | float | 1.0 | Specifies the scaling factor for the passage of time in the ARK, controlling how often day changes to night and night changes to day. The default value 1 provides the same cycle speed as the singleplayer experience (and the official public servers). Values lower than 1 slow down the cycle; higher values accelerate it. Base time when value is 1 appears to be 1 minute real time equals approx. 28 minutes game time. Thus, for an approximate 24 hour day/night cycle in game, use .035 for the value. |
| NightTimeSpeedScale | float | 1.0 | Specifies the scaling factor for the passage of time in the ARK during night time. This value determines the length of each night, relative to the length of each day (as specified by DayTimeSpeedScale. Lowering this value increases the length of each night. |

| HarvestHealthMultiplier | float | 1.0 | Specifies the scaling factor for the 'health' of items that can be harvested (trees, rocks, carcasses, etc.).

Options for Command Line ONLY
| -allcores | deprecated option to utilize all available server cores |
| -AllowAnyoneBabyImprintCuddle=true | Use this if you want ANYONE to be able to 'take care' of a Baby Dino (cuddle etc), not just whomever Imprinted on it. |
| -ClearOldItems | Official PvP servers one-time Clearance of all old unequipped items (with the exception of blueprints, eatables, notes, and quest items), to ensure fairness after Item Duplication bug exploit. Server admins can enforce this once if they run with this command argument (will only work ONCE on pre-update save games) Patch 178.0 |
| -culture=en | You can also directly override the language by using this commandline |
| -d3d10 | The game is forced to use DX10 instead of DX11 by sm4. Be sure to launch it accurately, you are not going to miss out on anything. Only for Windows |
| -DisableImprintDinoBuff=true | Use this to disable the Dino Imprinting-Player Stat Bonus, if you don't like it (where whomever specifically imprinted on the Dino, and Raised it to have an Imprinting Quality, gets extra Damage/Resistance buff) |
| -EnableIdlePlayerKick | Cause characters that have not moved or interacted within the KickIdlePlayersPeriod to be kicked. |
| -EnableExtraStructurePreventionVolumes=true | Use this to completely disable building in specific resource-rich areas, in particular setup on TheIsland around the major mountains. |
| -ForceAllowCaveFlyers | Force Flyer dinos to be allowed into caves (Flyers able to go into caves by default on custom maps) |
| -ForceRespawnDinos | Official Servers?? Relaunching with this command to destroy all wild creatures to flush out NPC's to new Biome configurations. (this will only destroy wild creatures that are NOT currently being tamed |
| -gameplaylogging | Survival of the Fittest servers can launch with this commandline option to output a dated log file to Saved folder, which will contain a timestamped kill & winners log listing steam id, steam name, character name, etc. Handy for automatic Tournament records… |
| -insecure | Disable Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) system. Only possible on Windows Servers |
| -lowmemory | Launch options that reduces graphics and audio effects to save about 800 MB RAM, likely enabling 4GB RAM players to get past infinite-loading screens |
| -MapModID=######### | Dedicated servers can now optionally load custom maps via ModID diectly, rather than having to specify the map name directly, using this syntax (where the MapModID is the Steam Workshop FileID of your custom map, and the GameModIds are the Id's of the stacked mods you wish to use, in order) |
| -noantispeedhack | Anti speedhack detection is now enabled by default — to disable it, use this server commandline |
| -nocombineclientmoves | Server player-move-physics optimization is now enabled by default (improves perf) — to disable it, use this server commandline |
| -noninlinesaveload | Fixed a savegame corruption case with large savegames: this is experimental, so try with this command, if you have any saves that don't load. We'll formally roll this loader change out in a subsequent patch after we're 100% certain it has no side effects. |
| -nomansky | Lots of detailed sky features are disabled, such as clouts and starry night sky. This decreases all of those but you can still have them. You still obtain the stars, the sun, and the moon. This just helps you remove the sparkling stars that make you sightless at night |
| -OverideStructurePlatformPrevention=true | Use this if you want Auto-Turrets to be buildable/working on those Dino saddle platforms 😉 |
| -PreventOfflinePvP=true | Use this to enable the offline raiding prevention option. |
| -PreventOfflinePvPInterval=900 | That would be a 15 min wait before a tribe/players dinos/structures become invulnerable/inactive after they log off. (if Tribe, requires ALL Tribe members logged off!) |
| -ShowFloatingDamageText=true | Use this to enable RPG-style popup text stat mode. |
| -servergamelog | Enable Server Admin Logs (including RCON support) use RCON command 'getgamelog' to print 100 entries at a time also outputs to dated file in in 'Logs', adjust max length of RCON buffer with commandline: '?RCONServerGameLogBuffer=600' |
| -server | deprecated option for server mode |
| -sm4 | The game is forced to use Shader Model 4 instead of the Shader Model 5 as usual. Well, there is no much difference, the game still looks and feels the same, but you can obtain better performance (Windows only?) (reported to increase frames but changes the game lighting). Only Windows |
| -StructureDestructionTag=DestroySwampSnowStructures | One-Time Auto-Structure Demolish on Swamp and Snow Zones: To do this, which you can only execute once after updating to v216, run your server or game with this commandline |
| -USEALLAVAILABLECORES | All of your CPU cores will be used, if all of them are not being utilized after using this launch option, then try to disable it! |
| -UseBattlEye | Enables Battleye |
| -usecache | ~70% faster loading speed option. Choose 'Experiment Fast Load Cache' launch option (use add '-usecache' to your launch commandline manually). After the first & second times that you start the game & load will be still be slow, but the third time onwards will be fast. This is testing a new caching method. If it works well, will then ship with the prebuilt cached files so that it'll always be fast even first-time, and we'll do this for all the maps as well. |
| -vday | Activate Valentine's Day Event |

Ark cheat codes and admin commands are the secret to making the world of Ark a less terrifying place. With all those dinosaurs running around unchecked, you may be finding that your quest to chop down trees is being too often interrupted by velociraptors. If this is the case, then perhaps you need to make some adjustment to your game with some Ark admin commands.
Admin commands, also known as console commands, are not strictly Ark cheats, but they do change the game to allow you access to things you wouldn't usually have. You can boost your experience points, instantly tame a dinosaur, add an item to your inventory, or even destroy every dinosaur in the land, simply by using a code word. Just type them in, tap enter, and hack the world as if it's the Matrix.
Our guide to Ark's admin commands will show you how to do all this. We've got all the best console codes, and we'll even show you how to change the Ark .ini file to make sure they all work, too.
How do you enter Ark: Survival Evolved admin commands?
To use an Ark console command, you'll first need to open the console. This can be done by pressing the TAB key. If this doesn't work, you'll need to make a quick adjustment in the game's .ini file. Head to:
SteamSteamAppscommonARKShooterGameConfigDefaultInput.ini
and open the .ini with Word Pad or similar. Scroll to the bottom of the document to find the line '+ConsoleKeys=Tab'. In front of the line will be a semi-colon (;). Delete this, save the .ini file, and the console should now work in-game.
Many commands will require the ‘Enable Cheats' command to be used beforehand, as well as the ‘Enable Cheats for Player' command. Be sure to use these before attempting to use other commands.
Here is a list of Ark cheat codes and admin commands:
Enable Cheats
enablecheats
Enables server administrator commands for the player. Password required will be the server password. Example: enablecheats pass123
