OpenNox console

Enabling all commands

By default, Nox and OpenNox start with most commands disabled. This is done to prevent cheating in campaign. Most commands will not work in multiplayer, unless you are a server admin/host.

To enable all commands, open the console (F1 by default) and type:

racoiaws

Remote console

OpenNox does not support original RCON protocol.

Instead, it implements remote console via a builtin SSH server.

In the console, each line must start with lua command:

lua apple = Nox.ObjectType("RedApple")

Notice that variables defined in one lua commands can be used in other ones.

It’s also possible to write a multi-line command in a single line:

or

Nox.ObjectType("RedApple"):Create(Nox.Players.host)
