Gameplay commands provide tools for modifying game mechanics, enabling debug features, and controlling player actions.

​
Developer Mode

​
chimera_devmode

Enable devmode commands without blocking multiplayer access or requiring command line arguments.
​
enabled
boolean
true to enable devmode, false to disable

Unlike Halo’s built-in devmode, Chimera’s implementation doesn’t prevent you from joining multiplayer servers.

​
Teleportation

​
chimera_teleport

Teleport yourself or another player to specific coordinates or to another player’s location.
​
target

Player index to teleport (optional, defaults to yourself)
​
destination

Either a player index to teleport to, or X Y Z coordinates
chimera_teleport 5                    # Teleport yourself to player 5
chimera_teleport 100 50 25            # Teleport to coordinates X=100, Y=50, Z=25
chimera_teleport 2 100 50 25          # Teleport player 2 to coordinates
chimera_teleport 3 5                  # Teleport player 3 to player 5
Teleporting other players only works when you’re hosting a server.
