# The Command Line
BSIPA has 2 command lines: the installer, and the game.
Their documentation is below.
# [The Installer (`IPA.exe`)](#tab/installer)
The installer has quite a few options, which are documented inline with the `-h` or `--help` flag.
This is what it currently looks like:
>
> [!code[IPA command line](_ipa_command_line.txt "the result of IPA.exe -h")]
>
# [The Game](#tab/game)
The game *also* gets quite a few command line options, though there isn't anything as convenient as a help page for them.
Here's a quick list of what they are and what they do.
- `--debug`
>
> Enables the loading of debug information in Mono. The debugging information must be in the portable PDB format,
> in the same location as the DLL that it's for.
>
> This option also forces BSIPA to show all debug messages in the console, as well as where they were called.
>
> This overrides the config settings `Debug.ShowDebug` and `Debug.ShowCallSource`.
>
- `--mono-debug`
>
> Enables the built-in Mono soft debugger engine.
>
> By default, it acts as a client, and requires that there be a soft
> debugger server running on port 10000 on `localhost`.
>
> Implies `--debug`.
>
- `--server`
>
> Does nothing on its own.
>
> When paired with `--mono-debug`, this option makes the Mono soft debugger act in server mode. It begins listening on
> port 10000 on any address, and will pause startup (with no window) until a debugger is connected. I reccommend using
> SDB, but that is a command line debugger and a lot of people don't care for those.
>
- `--no-yeet`
>
> Disables mod yeeting.
>
> By default, whenever BSIPA detects that the game is now running a newer version than previous runs, it will move all
> mods to another folder and not load them. (They still get checked for updates though.) When this is enabled, that
> behaviour is disabled.
>
> Overrides the config setting `YeetMods`.
>
- `--condense-logs`
>
> Reduces the number of log files BSIPA will output for a given session.
>
> By default, BSIPA will create a subfolder in the `Logs` folder for each mod sublog, as well as each mod. This disables
> that behaviour, and restricts it to only create a global log and mod logs.
>
> Overrides the config setting `Debug.CondenseModLogs`.
>
- `--no-updates`
>
> Disables automatic updating.
>
> By default, BSIPA will check [BeatMods](http://beatmods.com) for all of the loaded mods to see if there is a new version
> avaliable. If there is, it will be downloaded and installed on the next run. This flag disables that behaviour.
>
> Overrides the config settings `Updates.AutoCheckUpdates` and `Updates.AutoUpdate`.
