Command Editor ⌨️

Command Editor Dialog

The Command Editor lets you turn commands on or off, change how often viewers can use them, set costs, create shortcuts (aliases), and tweak special options for certain commands.

This is where you fine-tune exactly what your chat can do in the game.

Tip: Changes usually take effect immediately or after restarting the stream/chat connection.


Finding Commands

  • The left side lists all commands.
  • Use the Search bar to type part of a command name (like "raid" or "buy").
  • Click Sort buttons to order by Name, Category, or whether they're enabled.
  • Commands are color-coded by who can use them:
    • Red = Broadcaster only (you)
    • Green = Moderators
    • Gold = VIPs
    • Blue = Subscribers
    • White = Everyone

Disabled commands are grayed out.

Click any command to edit its settings on the right.


Editing a Command

Basic Controls

  • Enabled: Check the box so viewers can use it. Uncheck to turn it off completely.
  • Cooldown: Set how many seconds must pass between uses (short for common commands, longer for powerful ones).
  • Cost (if available): How many coins it costs to use.

Permission Level

Choose who is allowed:

  • Broadcaster (only you)
  • Moderator
  • VIP
  • Subscriber
  • Everyone

Aliases (Shortcuts)

Create shorter versions.

  • Example: Set bp so viewers can type bp instead of !backpack.
  • Don't include the ! when setting aliases.
  • The full command still works.

Other Limits

  • Max Uses Per Session: Limit how many times it can be used after loading the game (set to 0 for unlimited).
  • Game Days Cooldown: Limit some commands to once every few in-game days.

Special Commands

Some have extra options when selected:

  • Raid commands: Choose which raid types viewers can call and set wager settings.
  • Military Aid: Control reinforcement strength and betting.
  • Events: Link to global cooldowns.

These extra settings appear in the details panel when you select them.


Bulk Tools

Look for buttons at the top or in menus for:

  • Enable or disable groups of commands at once.
  • Reset settings for many commands.
  • Other quick bulk changes.

Backups

Bottom of the window:

  • Save Backup: Quick dated copy of all command settings.
  • Load Backup: Restore from the latest backup.
  • Save As / Load file: Save or load named settings files.
  • Delete file: Remove saved files.
  • Close: Close (settings save automatically).

Back up before experimenting.


Tips

  • Use short cooldowns (5-15s) for harmless commands and longer ones for big events.
  • Create easy aliases for commands people use a lot.
  • Start most commands with "Everyone" permission and raise it for powerful ones.
  • Match costs to how fast viewers earn coins.
  • Check the main Commands page for descriptions of what each command does.

All changes save when you close the window or as you make them.
