Stellaris Gigastructural Engineering Console Commands -

The create_megastructure command spawns the framework of a structure around a selected star or planet.

Syntax: Select the celestial body (planet or star) and type: create_megastructure [internal_id]

Select the megastructure with your mouse (so its name appears in the outliner), then:

finish_megastructure

Alternative via effect (if selected):
effect = every_megastructure_in_system = set_megastructure_stage = last_stage stellaris gigastructural engineering console commands

Stellaris purists will argue that using console commands ruins the "spirit" of Gigastructural Engineering—a mod designed to challenge your resource management across millennia. However, the mod also includes a built-in "Crisis Difficulty Slider" and "Cheat Menu" (accessible via the Edicts tab) for a reason.

The developer, Mr. (Anna) (Ellie) (Red), has stated: "Play how you want. If you want to spawn a Systemcraft on day one, go for it. It's a single-player game."

That said, here is a fair-use guideline: The create_megastructure command spawns the framework of a

Gigastructures consume massive resources (e.g., Birch World housing, Attack Moon alloys). Use these to keep them running:

| Resource | Command | |----------|---------| | Alloys | alloys 100000 | | Influence | influence 5000 | | Minor Artifacts | minor_artifacts 5000 | | Dark Matter | dark_matter 10000 | | All basic resources | resources 100000 |

| Event | Command | What it does | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Katzenland / Flusion Crisis | event giga_the_crucible.1 | Spawns Flusion with Kaiser (mid-game crisis). | | Blokkatz Early Invasion | event blokkatz.1 | Starts the Blokkatz voice intro. Use event blokkatz_event.200 for final battle. | | The Compound | event compound_crisis.100 | Spawns Compound Framework system. | | Aeternum (Birch World Fallen Empire) | event giga_birch_fallen.1 | Awakens the Aeternum instantly. | | Phanon Corp (Awakened Trader) | event phanon.100 | Summons the Phanon megacorp. | Stellaris purists will argue that using console commands

If you use console commands often, download "Instant Build" from the Steam Workshop (compatible with Gigas). It adds a policy that reduces megastructure build time to one day. This is cleaner than spamming finish_special_projects every stage.
