Thankfully, there are a ton of console commands that one can use to rectify these issues. For many of these, it is useful to have a list of the Spawn IDs, as these are the strings of text that are tied to each and every item in the game, whether they are a resource, tool, or a piece of furniture.
Using Spawn IDs
After one has opened up the console command menu, there are a few ways that the player can use a Spawn ID depending on what it represents in the game. There is the “Item” command, which places the specified number of an item into the player’s inventory; the “Spawn” command, which places an item in front of the player; and the “Unlock” command, where the game will unlock the specified blueprint in the player’s database. Here are examples of how each should look when used properly in the console with the solar panel item as a placeholder:
Raw Materials
These Spawn IDs pertain to the raw materials found in the game that can usually be obtained through breaking outcroppings as well as other means.
Basic Materials
Basic materials, such as those that can be crafted from simple recipes to form core components to many other recipes, can all be found using these Spawn IDs.
Electronics
Such items are the ones that power the player’s electronic equipment, and, more importantly, are crucial in building them in the first place. Here are all the Spawn IDs for this group of items.

Tools
Tools are vital devices that the player must use for various tasks, be it scanning, harvesting, or fighting off underwater threats; here are their Spawn IDs.
Deployables
The IDs for this group are about the items that are only usable after being deployed into the world after one uses them from the inventory.
Scanner Room Upgrades
Within the scanner room of one’s seabase, the player can locate many interesting spots among the waves. These Spawn IDs will help to upgrade this room as needed for the best scanning.

Advanced Materials
For more complex tools and craftable items, players will need these advanced materials, and if these bug-out to prevent them from acquiring such goods naturally, these Spawn IDs can be used in place of traditional gathering and fabricating methods.
Eggs
In an alien containment zone, players can essentially build their own aquarium that could possibly act as a small seabase aquatic farm for native fauna. Natural eggs can glitch out while inside, so use these Spawn IDs if one is having such a problem.
