2.0:XSRB2/Console

The following is a list of all new or modified console commands and variables in XSRB2:

Commands

add <variable> <amount/variable> [-silent]

Adds the specified amount – or the contents of a variable – to a specified variable. Intended to be used for scripts. The -silent parameter disables the "variable changed to x" console message.

notarget

Turns "SEP Field" mode on or off; regular enemies will ignore the player unless attacked.

toggle <variable> [-silent]

Deprecated by add, but kept around for backwards compatibility with SRB2 scripts. The added -silent parameter disables the "variable changed to x" console message.

tunes <slot> <speed> [-suspend]

Identical to tunes in regular SRB2, but with an additional -suspend parameter, which suspends the music change until the currently playing music has ended. This feature only works with the FMOD library and digital music (e.g., MP3 or Ogg). This feature is experimental and may not always work.

Variables

allowcolors <on/off>

Sets whether colored text is allowed in chat or not. Default is off.

drawchains <on/off>

Toggles the enemy chain counter, which displays how many enemies the player has jumped on in a row.

fpsmeter <on/off>

Turns XSRB2's improved FPS meter on or off. Replaces vid_ticrate.

homremoval <off/on/development>

"On" is identical to regular SRB2. "Development" causes all instances of the hall of mirrors glitch to flash bright red to make them easier to spot.

jewelshards <amount>

Requirements: Server or admins only

Sets the maximum number of Jewel Shards that will spawn during a Shards game. Default is 10; maximum is 99. Can also be set under Server Options.

sitcommands <on/off>

Toggles an easter egg that references a running gag from the manga series Inuyasha. If sitcommands is enabled and a player sends "osuwari" as a chat message, any player named "Inuyasha" will be damaged. The damage even affects Super players, who will lose their Super status and spill their collected emeralds.

spikebug <on/off>

Requirements: Single Player only

If enabled, falling onto spikes while temporarily invincible after being hit will still inflict damage. This pays homage to the infamous Sonic 1 bug.

timermode <countdown/ascending>

Adjusts how the TIME section of the HUD acts in netgames. "Ascending" is regular SRB2 behavior. "Countdown" will make the timer run backwards towards 0 when there is a time limit in the round.
