Dupe logs in Sons Of The Forest
Logs are the main consumable material, due to which a comfortable pastime is built on the territory of the endless open world, filled with various dangers. The methods described below will open the opportunity to get endless logs and resort to cutting down the surrounding forest as little as possible.
For the methods to work, you will need the developer console already installed above:
- In the first case, just press F1 and enter the code in the line "add item 78” - as a result, one log will appear. The command is very convenient if you need to get a half or a quarter, or just close a gap in the fence.
- The second option activates the endless spawn of material in the hands. Also open the console with F1 and type "loghack on» - a log will immediately appear in the hands, which will be constantly updated when used.
The second option is ideal for quickly building large objects, but it is worth considering the impossibility of picking up weapons during the command. To disable it, enter the command in the console "loghack off».
