Console commands (Fallout 4)/Player character

An overview of console commands for player character changes $$

Overview
The console is a debugging tool in the PC version of Fallout 4. It is used for altering content while in-game. It cannot be used in the game console versions or in Survival mode.

Stats and character

 * or – Prints a report of the current value of a given variable to the console. See list of character variables in this section for examples of what can be used here.
 * or – Sets actor values to a given amount (S.P.E.C.I.A.L., skills, experience, resistances, action points, health, etc.). Using setav will affect the perk chart and unlock new perks for the player to select from.
 * Example: (default)
 * or – Modify an actor value. S.P.E.C.I.A.L. set using "modav" will change in the Pip Boy but will not affect the Perk chart - use "setav" for this instead. The value will max out at its normal maximum value. A negative number lowers the variable.
 * Example
 * or – Force a value.

Additional

 * – Adds a specific perk and its rank. For a list of perks see Fallout 4 perks.
