EXIT	Exit the program
FLUSH	Flush all caches. Regenerates all lighting, 3d hardware textures, etc

JUMPTO x y z	In UnrealEd, move the viewport to a certain X,Y,Z location, useful in conjunction with tester reports generated with the REPORT command
LOADGAME num	Load a game in position 0-9
MARK	Mark all objects that are in memory (for garbage collection debugging in conjunction with MARKCHECK)
MARKCHECK	Display a list of all unmarked objects that are in memory (for garbage collection debugging in conjunction with MARK)
MEM	List memory usage; only works when Unreal is compiled with the memory-tracking option (it's usually not)

GET <classname> <variablename>

Gets a configurable class parameter. <classname> may be a partial classname, such as "playerpawn", or a qualified classname such as "engine.playerpawn". The class must be loaded in memory, otherwise GET returns an empty string. <variablename> must be the name of a variable that is designated as configurable (either in UnrealScript using the "config" keyword or in C++ using CPF_Config). This returns the value of the configured variable, converted to a string. The value returned by GET reflects the class's default value (for scripted classes, this is the default value that was set for the class using its property sheet). At any time, zero or more instances of objects belonging to <classname> may be in memory, and may have modified values of <variablename>, and they don't affect the value returned by "GET".

SET <classname> <variablename> <value>

Sets the default value of a class's variable. If the class is designated as configurable (using the "config"keyword in UnrealScript or CLASS_Config in C++), and so is the variable, this function updates the Unreal.ini file to reflect the new default value. If any instances of objects belonging to <classname> are in memory, all of those objects are updated. When an object's config variables are updated, they are notified as follows:

1. The object's PreEditChange() function is called, basically saying "Get ready to be modified!"
2. The object's configurable variables are updated with the newly configured values.
3. The object's PostEditChange() function is called, saying "You've been modified, so validate and update yourself".

In the Unreal key bindings (under Advanced Options / Advanced / Raw Key Bindings), you can associate console commands and other special input commands with key presses and releases. In the text box next to a key name, you can type in one or more console commands, separated by the "|" character. For example, to bind the "S" key to the "Jump" alias, type this:

    Jump

That causes the "Jump" alias to be executed when th user presses the "S" key. For another example, if you want to bind a chat message to a key, use this:

    Say "Come get some!"

In addition, you can bind multiple actions to a keypress like this, to make the "S" key both jump and say a message.

    Jump | Say "Come get some!"

You can also bind an action to the release of a key by using the OnRelease keyword. For example, you can make the "S" key fire when it's released:

    OnRelease Fire

Or you can make the key jump when pressed, and fire when released:

    Jump | OnRelease Fire

Keys can be bound to any of the following kinds of things:

	Any console command in the above lists.
	Any key alias (explained below).
	Any special input command.

"Special input command" refers to console commands which only make sense in conjunction with the press or release of a key, or the movement of the mouse or joystick along an axis. The special input commands are:

	BUTTON <UnrealScript boolean variable name>, for example "BUTTON bFire": Maps a button to an UnrealScript variable stored in the Pawn class or any subclass. This tells the input system to automatically set the variable to True when the key is held down, and False when it's not pressed. For example, the Pawn script looks at bFire to tell whether the fire button is being held. The setting of bFire is not some hardcoded behavior of the engine, rather it is propagated into UnrealScript code by the input system, as a result of binding a key to "BUTTON bFire".
	TOGGLE <UnrealScript boolean variable name>, for example "TOGGLE bLook": Like the BUTTON command, but simply tells the input system to toggle the boolean variable's value when the key is pressed.
	AXIS <UnrealScript floating point variable name> <SPEED=some number>, for example "Axis aStrafe Speed=-300.0". Maps an analog input axis movement to an UnrealScript variable, scaling it by some factor. The current axis keys listed in the Advanced Options menu are: MouseX, MouseY, MouseW (Intellimouse wheel), JoyX, JoyY, JoyZ, JoyR (joystick rudder), JoyU, JoyV (joystick alternate axis for example the Panther XL trackball). Supported PlayerPawn axes are aBaseX, aBaseY (base movements which are translated to rotating, strafing, looking, and forward movement based on context), aMouseX, aMouseY, aForward, aTurn, aStrafe, aUp (not used), aLookUp, aExtra0-aExtra4 (not used). To see how the game code processes movement, see the PlayerPawn class's PlayerInput and PlayerTick functions.

In addition to the Advance Options menu, you can also bind keys from the console using the following command:

	SET INPUT <keyname> <binding>

For example:

	SET INPUT X Fire
	SET INPUT Enter Fire

u n r e a l   k e y   a l i a s e s

Key aliases are listed in Advanced Options / Advanced / Input Aliases. Aliases provide a convenient way to map one word (for example, "Jump") to a complex series of console commands that carry out a particular action. For example, the "Fire" alias is defined as: "Fire | Button bFire". This has the effect of calling the UnrealScript "PlayerPawn.Fire" function (aliases are not recursive), and then causing the input button bJump to be set to True as long as the key is held.
