Questions

How do you open the console in Casualties: Unknown?

Press the backquote key (~, top left under Escape on US keyboards). Type help and press Enter to list every command.

Do cheats disable achievements?

Yes, since 1.0 using certain console commands outside the tutorial sandbox disables achievements. Players report that saveandquit counts too.

How do you find item IDs?

IDs are lower-case internal names such as bandage (dressing), chestdrain, aed or manualdefibrillator. The spawn command auto-corrects close misspellings, and the community wiki lists the ID on each item page.

Is there a command to unlock characters?

There is no unlock command. Players use skiplayer to reach the end faster, which still requires finishing a run; unlock mods exist on Nexus. Both affect achievements.
