Overview

The set_is_player command is used to designate a particular character as being controlled by you, rather than the game’s AI.

To execute this command, you need to input the character ID of the person you want to control.

This command helps players to have individual control over a character, its actions, and decisions.

This can be particularly useful in certain gameplay situations where there's a need for direct control over a character's actions rather than depending on AI-controlled behaviors.

For example, using the set_is_player command, you can take control of a character and directly influence their decisions related to wars, alliances, successions, land division, marriages among other strategic events in the game.

How to Open the Command Console

In CK3, cheats are executed from the command console, a text box that you type commands into.

To open the command console press the ~ (tilde) key, which is typically located under ESC (escape).

If your keyboard does not have that key, or pressing ~ does not work, try the following keys:

  • ~
  • SHIFT + 2
  • SHIFT + 3
  • ALT + 2 + 1

Type your command into the console, and then press ENTER .
