Stellaris Gigastructural Engineering Console Commands Page
Structures, including Gigastructures, complete in one day. Essential for mod testing.
effect = spawn_megastructure = behemoth_planetcraft (spawns a planetcraft at the current selected object – star or planet)
– Grants Negative Mass, which is required for advanced constructs like the Alderson Disk.
Here are some of the most common gigastructure types you can create using console commands: stellaris gigastructural engineering console commands
| Action | Command | | :--- | :--- | | | event giga_mega.402 | | Activate Quasar (for QSO) | effect set_global_flag = giga_core_qso | | Set as Inactive Black Hole (for Birch World) | effect set_global_flag = giga_core_birch |
If you want to test your gigastructures against the mod's unique end-game threats, use these triggers: : effect begin_crisis_scluster = yes The Prime Flesh : effect begin_crisis_PF22 = yes Cybrex Resurgence : begin_crisis_cycris = yes
Click on the bugged megastructure frame, open the console, and type effect remove_megastructure = this . This will completely erase the structure from the system so you can rebuild it cleanly. Structures, including Gigastructures, complete in one day
For the uninitiated, the Gigastructural Engineering mod fundamentally alters the economic curve of Stellaris . Where the base game caps excitement at building a Dyson Sphere or a Matter Decompressor, this mod introduces structures like the Quasi-Stellar Obliteration system, the Birch World, or the Behemoth Planetcraft. The resource requirements for these projects are staggering, often demanding millions of alloys and strategic resources. In a standard playthrough, reaching the point where a player can afford a Birch World—essentially an infinite-size planet built around a black hole—can take hundreds of in-game years. This is where console commands become the great equalizer.
Gigastructural Engineering introduces unique strategic resources and massive research requirements. Use these standard console commands to quickly fund your mega-engineering projects.

| Want | Command | |------|---------| | Unlock everything | research_all_technologies then event giga_cheat_menu.1 | | Spawn a Systemcraft | Requires combining 3 planetcraft + 1 moon + star. Use create_naval_unit or the cheat menu. | | Complete a Dyson Sphere | Select sphere → finish_megastructure | | Remove a bugged structure | Select → effect remove_megastructure = this |
