The online shooter SCUM has, like the survival game Conan Exiles, the ability to use admin commands. Not every player is enthusiastic about this possibility. We show you all admin commands in SCUM.
Admin commands allow players on private servers or even in single-player mode to cheat. Therefore, not everyone views the possibility of using these commands positively.
Admin commands offer you some advantages
How do you use the commands? First, it’s important to note that you can only use admin commands if you set up a private server or play the successful online game SCUM in single-player mode – essentially in the same way as Conan Exiles works.
- Open chat with the “T” key
- Type a hashtag #
- Now type the command with the item ID
- Press the “Enter” key
- If you then press “TAB” in the game, you will see the spawned item
Examples of commands: Here we have put together some examples for you. These show that the commands are meant to make your gameplay easier, but also to kick or even ban annoying players from your server.
- Spawn bear
#spawncharacter bp_cow2
- Spawn zombie
#spawncharacter bp_zombie2
- Spawn shelter
#spawnitem shelter
- Spawn storage box
#spawnitem improvised_wooden_box
- Spawn Santa

How to spawn weapons in SCUM using admin commands

A controversial issue among players
Fair or unfair? That is the question: In the SCUM community, a discussion has erupted on Reddit about whether it is fair to be able to use these commands. However, the community seems divided on the issue.
Some argue that everyone should be able to do whatever they want in their game – whether on a private server or in single-player mode.
Others argue that admins often become extremely powerful, which compromises fairness in the game. Moreover, livestreams show how the commands are used, leading to unfair gameplay situations, making it no longer enjoyable to watch the game.
The fans of SCUM seem unable to come to a common ground on this topic. What do you think? Should admin commands be allowed in online games on private servers and in any potential single-player mode?
