Item ID Vs. Blueprint Path
There are a lot of variables mentioned above, with many of them representing the same thing. Two variables like this are"itemNumber" and “blueprintpath”.
The “itemNumber” refers to anitem’s specific number ID.For example, the ID for Chitin Leggings is 27. To summon one pair of leggings at the lowest quality, you would use the following command.
By setting “forceblueprint” to “true”, you will alsounlock this blueprint on the Engram tree.If false, the item will remain locked, and you will need to use your own Engram points to unlock it if you want to craft manually.
Blueprint paths are a bit more complex to use, andaren’t necessary for every situation,however they can be helpful if you are playing with certain mods.If you were to summon the same Chitin Leggins with this code, you would use the following command.
AtArkIDs, you can find a complete list of every item number in the game.
