— The Sniper on cheats

”

There are a number of cheats players can use on servers set to sv_cheats 1. Cheats can be used for a variety of applications.

Unlike hacking or cheatingwhich is never allowedcheats are available to all players to use as they wish on applicable servers (assuming they have permission from the server operator). Playing on a cheat-enabled server does not influence a player's gameplay statisticsand achievements cannot be earned during that time. Items still randomly drop even if a server is set to sv_cheats 1.

sv_cheats 1 is not any form of external hacking or cheating. The usage of sv_cheats 1 does not result in a VAC ban against the user.

Bots can both be spawned and given commands.

buddha

Prevents lethal damage to the user (can still take damagebut doesn't cause health to go below 1 in most cases). Toggle.

Debug commands

Debug commands are generally cheats. They are used to test game mechanics. Some noteworthy ones are

tf_debug_damage: Performs a console print every time anyone takes damagegiving information about damage variables such as the distance of the attack and health left of the target.
tf_debug_flamethrower: Allows you to see the hitboxes of fire particles as well as visual information about when targets are hit by fire.

hurtme

Deals damage to the command user. The hurtme command must be followed by a numbersuch as hurtme 50. Players can use negative values to bring their health well beyond normal limits (a maximum of 16383)which usually displays incorrectly on the HUD. Health that is raised above the normal limit wears off as a normal overhealbut excessive use of hurtme in this way can cause the user's health to drain continually until dying.

Power Play

Robin Walker using a Valve Rocket Launcher and under the effects of power play during a charity livestream.

Power play is a hidden command that grants Valve employees the ability to cheat on any server (even if sv_cheats is off). Two covertly named console commands condump_on and condump_off are used to toggle power play. If there is any string after the powerplay command is executed(for examplecondump_on 1) it activates powerplay for the whole team the developer is on rather than only the developer issuing the command. When activatedpower play grants all Medi Gun effects at once. This includes damage invulnerability from the Medi Gun; 100% Critical hits from the Kritzkrieg; bulletexplosiveand fire resistance from the Vaccinatorand knockback immunity from the Quick-Fix. Under the effects of power playthe player appears on fire and frequently utters an evil laughtaunting helpless victims.

Changes to the game since power play was introduced has caused a few bugs. Players lose their Medi Gun effects over time if they are not continually healed by a Medic. The Quick-Fix ÜberCharge is appliedbut has no healing effectbut does grant knockback immunity. Players under the effect of power play are still able to capture control points.

Currentlyonly nine Steam accounts have access to power play. They are listed below.
