Console commands allow you to modify gameplay settings. If the player has the "Dev command console" option enabled in settings, pressing '''F7''' will open the developer console, which allows you to run commands. They can be used in the [[Hideout]], Sandbox and "Explore NYC" modes, as well as cheat-enabled custom games.
