The present guide will explain briefly how to use a handy tool at our disposal: a console called Quantum Console. It is a in-line command console from which a series of commands can be launched for developing and testing purpose. It is a tool that can be provided separately, therefore not always included in Unity (which Phantom Brigade is built into).
The below methods are acquired by self-studying (with a bit of consulting) and personal testing. That being said, I will not be held responsible in case your game will stop working, save files corrupted or you get a compromised gameplay of any sort. Therefore, do it AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Based on the circumstance we are in the game, the quantum console on Phantom Brigade can only use a set of commands. Let's say, for instance, we are in combat and we want to use this tool a command that is only available for that scenario (Overworld/Combat/Mobile base inventory).
To summon this kind of tool, however, first we have to make sure we are in the right environment to use these specific commands. Once confirmed, press ~ (Tilde) Symbol on the keyboard (usually near the backlash key \ on the keyboard, at the right top corner); if the steps were done correctly, a console will appear on the left bottom corner of your screen in-game.
NOTE ABOUT TILDE: Keep in mind that the keycap position may differ from the physical layout and the input method setted up on your Operative System (esp. if you are using more than one input method on your computer), therefore check the exact position on your keyboard in order to call the tool correctly.
Tip: when typing even one of the below acronyms, the console will suggest a list of possible command you're searching based on the text inserted. Commands are separated in three categories:
cm. → Combat-related commands (used only in combat);ow. → Overworld-related commands (used only when in the Overworld AKA the world map);cr. → Inventory/crawler-related commands (used only when inside the mobile base);Most used cm. commands
cm.godmode → Set god mode during combatcm.noheat → Set no heat. Mechs in the team will not receive heat and damage from heat overtime.cm.create-enemy → spawn a enemy unitMost used ow. commands
ow.see-all → Removes the fog of the war in the overworld, revealing all the sites all over the country.ow.pilot-list → List mobile base mech pilots.ow.hope-set → Set the hope in a province (1-100).ow.list-areas → List all the areas of the country/province.Most used cr. commands
