Quick Overview

The surrender command in Stellaris is used when a player wants to submit to an opponent.

This means that the player accepts all demands put forth by the opposing country.

In-Depth Description

The surrender command in Stellaris is used to automatically make a selected country surrender in a war situation, acceding to all demands of the victorious party.

This is an instantaneous command, immediately ending any active conflict on the predefined terms of defeat.

To use this command, you must first utilize the [empire id] parameter to list all wars that the given empire is involved in, each of which will have a unique war_id.

The war_id is necessary to specify which conflict the selected country is surrendering in, in cases where a country is involved in multiple wars.

In summary, the surrender command makes it quick and simple to end a war in defeat for a specified country.

Type your command into the console, and then press ENTER .
