Is there somewhere I can find this modification? If not what file do I need to edit
Update: I just made it so that the "report bug" button brings up the console, so my problem is solved for now.

adv. options => enable developer's console. default is ~ I believe
you can also put -console in your launch options and have it open by default

I phrased it badly, I meant editing in a new button on the main menu that, once clicked, makes the console pop up since binds don't always work on the main menu

you could theoretically change a button you don't use to open console instead.
head to your gamemenu.res file and look around for something you don't use, like the streams button or the in-game store (who uses either of those) and hijack it for the console
change the command to something like "engine con_enable 1;toggleconsole" and it should work pretty easily

I just did that, thank you for the suggestion.
