Authentication & the admincheat prefix

Open the console (Tab or ~) and run enablecheats <adminpassword> first. On a dedicated server, prefix every command with admincheat (e.g. admincheat god). In single-player / non-dedicated you can omit the prefix and just type the command directly.

ATLAS vs ARK Commands

ATLAS is built on ARK's engine, so ~70% of commands are identical. ATLAS adds commands specific to:

Ships — spawn dinghies, rafts, sloops, schooners, brigantines, galleons
Islands & grid — teleport across grid cells, set time per region
Companies — company-level moderation tools

Commands marked Ships are ATLAS-specific; others are shared with ARK.
