Wizard mode is ostensibly used for debugging the game; however, to most players, it's easy mode. To access wizard mode press F12 during play to bring up the console and then type wizard and hit enter and then press Escape to close the console.

Once in wizard mode, autosave will be disabled as saving the game (either by pressing F1 or by quitting normally) makes wizard mode permanent.

Console Commands

Pressing F12 brings up the console.

wizard enables wizard mode
gain_spell gain all spells
gain_spact gain all special actions
gain_exp gain between nine hundred million and one billion experience points
gain_fame gain fame
allinv lists all items in the current map in the console (a little unwieldy)


Function Keys

Once you have activated Wizard mode, the additional commands can be accessed through the function keys. Due to the debugging nature of Wizard mode, these functions tend to change with each version.

Function Keys in 1.16 reloaded fix 2b
F1 Saves the game.
F2 Load last save.
F3 Asks you to load a file.
F4 Something's potential for attributes expands. Causes random events. Makes you sleepy.
F5 Grants a wish.
F6 Passes time with a visible transition.
F7 Regenerates the dungeon and, if available, teleports you down a level. On the world map, this regenerates the location of materials. Using this in Your Home will prevent you from leaving.
F8 Export menu Disabled in wizard mode.
F9 Clear HUD messages. HUD will return upon movement, messages will not.
F10 Same effect as pressing Alt
F11 Dumps your character's information to a text file.
F12 Opens the console.


Pros and Cons

Pros

You can 'i'nteract with anything and get Info about it, without having to pay 10k at the informer.

You are unlikely to starve due to running out of food as you can just wish for more.

You have no trouble with HP or MP, thanks to gain_exp.

You can obtain extra skill points from gain_exp.

You can get some of the hardest quests with gain_fame.

Cons

Using gain_exp will make outdoor encounters almost impossible; however, if you never voluntarily enter an outdoor area, you should be fine.

Quests pay you bupkiss if you overuse gain_fame and gain_exp. I'm not quite sure how it's calculated, but you get nothing. Guess you're stuck with wishing for gold and equipment.

You don't always get exactly what you wish for.

Being in wizard mode changes your alias to "*Debug*"

Your character is ineligible for gene transferance if wizard mode is activated (you cannot continue playing with an heir).

Wishes

Main article: Wishing

You'd never waste a wish in a normal game. However, in wizard mode, you can press F5 to make any number of wishes.

If you are hungry trave creates a cargo of travelers food, stoma creates a stomafillia cheese creates a hero cheese which raises HP and magic fr gets you a magic fruit which raises MP. If you feel like cooking something, try wishing for oven, kitchen, food machine, food processor or stove.

If you want money use gold for a level dependent amount of gold. platinum creates five platinum coins and platin creates 8-12 platinum coins. medal creates 3-5 small medals (note that medals is not parsed in any special way will only create a single small medal.

If you need to buy a deed, use ranch, farm, shop, museum or dungeon. Wishing for deed results in a deed of cozy house and there is no currently known way to wish for any other house.

Wish spamming

If you need to repeat a wish many times, go to a word processor and type your wish followed with an enter (a line skip).


Go back to Elona and hold down the control key. Now press F5 to bring up the wish dialog, then press V, which pastes what you had copied. The game treats the second blank line after your wish as a command to enter in your wish as soon as it is copied, so the wish is made without having to press enter.

You can just keep holding down ctrl and alternately pressing F5 and V to repeat a wish as many times as you like.

Special actions

Main article: Special action

Using gain_spact will give you every special action in the game, including those used by monsters (but not Riding, which you need the Riding skill for, or Pickpocket, which you need the Pickpocket skill for).

Some sample skills:

  • Mewmewmew!: This causes 9999999 damage to (It's seven 9's) everyone on the current map. Great if you want to burn down cities without any resistance at all. (although, if you really want to burn a city down, try constantly casting fire wall into a room for about 20 turns and it should fuel a city-crushing fire!)
  • Death word: Kills the target 20 turns later.
  • Suicide attack: Same as what a Kamikaze Yeek uses.
  • Pregnant: Inserts a vicious ALIEN into the target. It will rip out of them within 1500 turns or much less.
