As a ue4 mbp user I’ve tried both. If I know I’m going pure blueprint, I prefer ue4/everything on a bootcamped partition with windows 10, even building, then I submit on the Mac OS partition. The Mac partition is there for code projects but I take the hit for windows development.
There are all kind of interesting cheat commands that you can use to test your own Europa Universalis 4 mods, the commands are not only helpful to test your mods, it’s also interesting for experimenting, but maybe you just want to play a very small nation but not without using some beneficial cheats. No matter what your intention is, in this small article you will learn how to open the command console in EU4. So, how do we open the game console?
In most cases you just have to press the “^” key below the escape key. But as there are different keyboard layouts, this can vary. If it doesn’t work, you might want to try “Schift + 2” or “Schift + 3”. If this is still not working, you might try the alternatives like “Alt + 21” , “§”, “~”, or “`”. As that, this depends on your keyboard layout. This hopefully helped you.

Useful In-Game Commands
When you are running the game, there are a multitude of console commands you can use in the console inside the game. The console can be summoned by pressing the ~ (tilde) or Tab keys. Some of the most useful commands are listed below.
EXIT/QUITDISCONNECTOPEN [MapURL]TRAVEL [MapURL]VIEWMODE [Mode]
Loading Maps
It is possible to specify a particular map to load when running the engine or editor or load a new map while running the engine. This can be useful for testing by quickly jumping into the map you want to test without needing to make your way through a series of menus.
The same concept works when running the editor. Specifying the name of the map to load will load that map when the editor opens instead of the default or blank map. To load the editor with the ExampleMap map loaded, the following command line can be used:
The map name can also be a full map URL specifying additional settings such as the GameMode. Settings are appended to the map name as key-value pairs separated by a ?. For example:
Loading New Maps
If you want to load a new map during play, in order to test during development or even to switch maps during gameplay, this can be done using the OPEN or TRAVEL console commands followed by the name of the map (without the file extension) to load.
The difference between the OPEN and TRAVEL commands is described above in the Useful In-Game Commands section.
The commands below load the DM-Deck map during play with the same settings or settings reset, respectively:
