Creating a stable beaver settlement in Timberborn is no small feat even if you don’t have to worry about pesky humans ruining things along the way. In between floods, droughts, and resource shortages, the city builder requires you to pay careful attention to multiple things, which is why having console commands and cheats on hand never hurts.
Timberborn’s console commands and cheats are locked behind its developer console, which is a bit more elusive than some of its peers. Although available by default, no mere press of the tilde key will convince this one to show up. Instead, the key combination to fiddle with powers you shouldn’t have access to is Alt + Shift + Z/X, as spotted by Reddit user LHRCheshire.
