Give Item (Spawn Item)

raft — Console Commands

Spawns a specified item into your inventory or at your position, useful for testing or recovering lost resources.

Syntax

give <item_name> <amount>

Example

give plank 10

💡 Notes

Item names must match internal IDs (e.g., 'plank', 'plastic', 'metal_ingot'). [verify] exact list of item IDs is not officially documented; use common names. Amount defaults to 1 if omitted.

🎯 Tips & Tricks

Find Item Names

Use the 'listitems' command (if available) or check the game's wiki for internal item IDs. Common ones: 'plank', 'plastic', 'scrap', 'stone', 'wood'.

Stack Limits

Specify amounts within stack limits (usually 20-99 depending on item) to avoid overflow or loss.

Use for Testing

Spawn rare items like 'engine' or 'biofuel' to test advanced crafting without grinding.

🔧 Troubleshooting

Item doesn't appear in inventory

Check if the item name is spelled correctly and matches the internal ID. Try spawning a common item like 'plank' to verify the command works.

Command returns 'unknown item'

The item ID may be different. Use 'listitems' or consult community mods for a full list. [verify]
