Ways to Open the Developer Console

Hey guys, I was just wondering if there are ways to open up the console other than pressing F9 or typing /console in the chat.

I’m asking this mostly because I’ve been trying to make a custom chat as a learning project, and I haven’t found anything on how I could replicate the /console functionality

Heres the other way!

ESC > Settings > Scroll down > Dev console > Open

You can try looking at Chat’s scripts.

(return not needed, and change getcore to setcore)

Hey wow, I totally missed that. Didn’t think of looking in the settings, though I was mainly thinkin of a way of opening it up with/through code in a script

Thanks ATPStorages, you put me on the right track. I couldn’t find anything under the Chat service in my game for some reason, so after switching to another game I could finally see the goods

There is a method in StaterGui called SetCore. It enables the main GUI of Roblox like Leaderboard, Friend Requests, etc. This also include the Developer Console.

You can do:

StarterGui:SetCore("DevConsoleVisible", true)

To enable the developer console without pressing F9 or type /console.
