Not to be confused with Cheating, which are third-party programs designed to give the user an advantage over the other players.
Cheatin' only gets ya so far.
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 cheating, which is never allowed, cheats 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 statistics, and 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.

List of cheats

addcond

The addcond command applies a player condition to the user. The addcond command must be followed by a number, such as addcond 5. The duration of the condition can be set by following the command with a second number, such as addcond 5 10, where 10 is the duration in seconds. The effects can usually be removed via removecond followed by the corresponding number, and bots can be given conditions by using bot_command with addcond. Different numbers have different effects as listed below:

ID Description Internal Name
0 Slowed (as in when revving Minigun or zooming in with Sniper Rifles). Places the player in their class's zoomed/revved pose (for classes without this animation, this uses the reference pose). TF_COND_AIMING
1 Sniper Rifle zoom/scope. If applied whilst in third person, the player appears invisible. Upon switching out of a weapon whilst this condition is active when the weapon does not allow zooming, the game crashes. TF_COND_ZOOMED
2 Disguise smoke. TF_COND_DISGUISING
3 Disguise donning. TF_COND_DISGUISED
4 Cloak effect. Applying this effect as Spy initiates cloaking, but with no sound (with the selected PDA's deploy animation playing). When applied as a class other than Spy, the player immediately uncloaks with no noise. TF_COND_STEALTHED
5 Medi Gun invulnerability effect. Drops as soon as the user starts to receive continuous healing from a Dispenser, Payload cart or Medic's secondary healing gun. Also drops from a Medic as soon as he activates or comes to the end of his own ÜberCharge. Not affected by a Medic's self-healing. TF_COND_INVULNERABLE
6 Teleporter dust. TF_COND_TELEPORTED
7 Intended to be taunting. Does nothing via addcond, but can be used with removecond to immediately stop taunting. TF_COND_TAUNTING
8 ÜberCharge expiration effect, if the player is ÜberCharged. TF_COND_INVULNERABLE_WEARINGOFF
9 Intended to be flickering effect if Cloaked. Removed immediately if added. TF_COND_STEALTHED_BLINK

12 Intended to be a temporary damage buff. Does nothing. TF_COND_TMPDAMAGEBONUS
13 Dead Ringer Cloak defense buff, works with any watch as Spy. Automatically adds condition 4. TF_COND_FEIGN_DEATH

16 Buff Banner effect. TF_COND_OFFENSEBUFF
17 Chargin' Targe effect. Causes any class to begin moving forward with a restricted turn rate as if charging, while emitting the Demoman's charging yell (the Demoman's speed increases to 750 HU/s, and for Demomen this condition expires when the charge meter empties). TF_COND_SHIELD_CHARGE
18 Intended to be the glowing eye effect associated with the Eyelander's head-taking capability. Can be used with removecond to remove such a glow. TF_COND_DEMO_BUFF
19 Crit-a-Cola/Buffalo Steak Sandvich/Cleaner's Carbine effect. TF_COND_ENERGY_BUFF
20 Medicating Melody effect (does not heal, only adds rings around the player's feet; the rings are removed after a taunt ends, though the condition persists). TF_COND_RADIUSHEAL
21 Intended to be the effect associated with any kind of continuous healing. Can be used with removecond to remove such an effect. TF_COND_HEALTH_BUFF
22 Ignite reaction (sound and speech, but no fire). Can be used with removecond to remove afterburn. TF_COND_BURNING

32 Disciplinary Action effect. TF_COND_SPEED_BOOST

49 Crouching causes the player to appear to be a Dispenser of the enemy team to enemy players. As a side effect, it forces the player's speed to 450 Hammer Units per second (diagonal movement is at 520 HU/s). Swapping weapons while in this state causes the player to briefly stop moving, and then return to 450 HU/s. This condition also causes Sentry Guns to ignore the player, which was possibly used for a Spy disguise that was later scrapped. TF_COND_DISGUISED_AS_DISPENSER
50 Adds a sparking effect to the player's head (associated with sapping a Robot in Mann vs. Machine). Applying to a BLU player in Mann vs. Machine allows them to be backstabbed from any angle unless they are a giant. TF_COND_SAPPED

53 Player is forced into thirdperson and hears the Bombinomicon's lines as if their head were turned into a bomb. If Merasmus is active on the map, a bomb appears on the player's head. This condition may cause users to crash if added on a map other than Ghost Fort. TF_COND_HALLOWEEN_BOMB_HEAD
54 Player cannot move and hears the Ghost Fort dancing music. Any taunts performed are the Thriller taunt. TF_COND_HALLOWEEN_THRILLER
55 Automatically adds condition 20 and 21 and causes the player and every nearby teammate to begin gaining health as if being healed by the Amputator. The player gets the credit for any healing that occurs. Conditions 20 and 21 are automatically removed when the player ends any taunt, but condition 55 remains active (though it does nothing after this point). TF_COND_RADIUSHEAL_ON_DAMAGE

Pictogram comment.png Most of the conditions added with addcond remain for an indefinite duration if no duration is specified, ending when the user dies, changes classes, or manually removes the condition with the removecond command. Some conditions (e.g. 5, 11) can be removed by being healed by a Medic.

Pictogram comment.png Invalid condition numbers use the closest valid condition.

bot

See also Bots

Bots can both be spawned and given commands.

buddha

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

Please note that in rare cases, you may die from sustained damage.

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 damage, giving 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 number, such 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 overheal, but excessive use of hurtme in this way can cause the user's health to drain continually until dying.

impulse

The impulse command is used for both cheats and non-cheats (the most common non-cheat being paint spray, which is impulse 201). The impulse command must be followed by a number, such as impulse 101. Different numbers have different effects, as listed below.

ID Description
101 Refills all weapons and health (like Resupply).
102 Spawns human skull.
106 Identifies model being aimed at.
107 Identifies texture being aimed at.
200 Plays holster/draw animations.
201 Sprays your selected spray.
202 Plays a custom sound to players who have set cl_customsounds 1. The sound is configured using cl_soundfile filename.wav.
203 Removes object being aimed at like ent_remove and ent_fire _____ kill, but doesn't print "Removed [entity name] (Name)" in the console.
221-239 If the player is a Spy, starts the disguise process. 221-229 are for a RED disguise, while 231-239 are for a BLU disguise (230 is non-functional). The final digit selects the disguise class, but this number corresponds to the disguise command class order (which is the Team Fortress Classic class order).

noclip

Lets the player fly around and go through walls as if they were a free-roam spectator. Players can still take damage, such as from environmental hazards. Toggle.

thirdperson

Changes your view to third-person, similarly to the third-person Spectator view. Can be undone with firstperson or taunting.

currency_give

Gives a specified amount of credits in Mann vs. Machine. The maximum appears to be 30000 credits; excessive amounts may crash the server. For example, currency_give 10000 gives you 10,000 credits. It can also be used to take away credits with a negative number.

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 example, condump_on 1) it activates powerplay for the whole team the developer is on rather than only the developer issuing the command. When activated, power play grants all Medi Gun effects at once. This includes damage invulnerability from the Medi Gun; 100% critical hits from the Kritzkrieg; bullet, explosive, and fire resistance from the Vaccinator, and knockback immunity from the Quick-Fix. Under the effects of power play, the player appears on fire and frequently utters an evil laugh, taunting 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 applied, but has no healing effect, but does grant knockback immunity.

Currently, only nine Steam accounts have access to power play. They are listed below.
