Spawn Item (c_give)

dont-starve — Cheat Codes

Spawns a specified number of items directly into your inventory or at your feet.

Syntax

c_give("prefabname", count)

Example

c_give("meat", 5) gives 5 pieces of meat.

💡 Notes

Use exact prefab names (e.g., 'log', 'flint', 'twigs'). Count is optional; defaults to 1. [verify] for DLC-specific items.

🎯 Tips & Tricks

Find item IDs

Use the Don't Starve wiki or the debug console's c_listallitems() to see all prefab names.

Spawn to ground

Use c_spawn("prefab", count) to place items on the ground instead of inventory.

🔧 Troubleshooting

Item not appearing

Check for typos in the prefab name; use quotes around the string.

Game crashes

Avoid spawning massive counts (e.g., 1000+) at once; spawn in batches.
