Hytale Commands – the searchable command reference

Hytale server commands you can use in the in-game chat or server console: 709 entries, including 161 top-level commands. For each command, you can see its syntax, subcommands, each argument's type and description, and aliases. The detail page also shows its permission and default group. Debug commands included by the server for its developers are hidden.

In the in-game chat or server console. A command starts with a slash and the top-level command name, such as /help. Commands marked “Player only,” such as /op self, only work in-game. Many commands require a permission; the detail page shows which one.

Use /gamemode creative or the shorter /gamemode c. Switch back to Adventure Mode with adventure or a. You can also use /gm instead of /gamemode. For yourself, the command requires the Builder group by default; changing another player's mode uses separate syntax with a target player and the WorldEditor group.

/op self adds you to the OP group and only works when entered by a player in-game. Use /op add <player> and /op remove <player> to add or remove other players by name or UUID. Each command's detail page shows its required permission and default group.

We use the game's syntax: a word in angle brackets, such as <item>, is required. Square brackets, such as [--quantity=1], indicate an optional argument; the value after the equals sign is the default or expected value. A flag such as [--crash] needs no value. Three dots after a name mean multiple values or the entire remaining input are allowed. A word directly after the command, such as settings in /world settings pvp, is a subcommand.

An Item, Sound, or Creature Role argument links to the relevant database: item, sound, or mob. There you'll find the ID to use in the command, such as the item ID for /give.

They're often called cheats. These are the game's built-in commands, such as /give for items, /tp for teleporting, or /gamemode for Creative Mode. You don't need hacks or downloads, just the right permission on the server.

We read the commands from the Hytale server package that we also use for actual Hytale Game Servers, and obtain the descriptions from the game's language files. We update the data after game updates. We show descriptions in English, exactly as the game provides them for its commands, without paraphrasing or translating them. If something can't be determined clearly, we leave it blank rather than guess.
