１．How to use command?

These commands can be used in “System Console”.

You can open it by pressing ^ key.
If not working, let see [Option -> CONTROLS] and look for “console”.

“System Console” has two type of console, one for whole game and the other for each vehicle.

“GE – Lua”: a console for whole game
“BeamNG – XX”: a console for each vehicle

“GE – Lua” VS “BeamNG – XX”

If you want to execute command for all vehicles, use “GE – Lua” console, and execute command like this:

for vid, veh in activeVehiclesIterator() do veh:queueLuaCommand("THE COMMAND YOU WANT TO RUN") end

For example, if you want to explode all vehicles, you can execute like this:

for vid, veh in activeVehiclesIterator() do veh:queueLuaCommand("fire.explodeVehicle()") end

If you want to execute command for each vehicle, it is much more easy.
Select console for target vehicle, and just execute “THE COMMAND YOU WANT TO RUN“.

For example, if you want to explode a vechivle, only you have to do is executing this command.

fire.explodeVehicle()

From here, I show you funny and convenience command examples.
These are mainly for all vehicles, so if you want to execute for each, please replace like above.
