If a cheat is not working "no matter if I'm using the shortcut or typing it out" and the console won't display, you have a different problem than with this mod. Also the patch notes do not mention anything about cheats having changed (which is really something that would be in the notes normally).

After taking the shortcuts out the console is behaving normally, however the cheats that I'm trying to use, namely setting skill levels still don't work, so I'm inclined to think that you're right. None of my other mods deal with cheats, only tweaking the game. Thank you for a quick response

Thank you for this it makes it a bit more easier to use the cheat codes.

I put the mod in my mod manger and it shows up but the shortcuts don't work what should I do? o..o

I don't know what a "mod manger" is. I would suggest to simply follow the one-step direction given in the upload post.

Thank you so much, must have in my game! :)

Can someone tell me how to add the cheats that are not included? careers.promote, enablefreebuild, and so on... I'm not much of a script/code writer. Thanks.

See the instructions in the first post.

Hi, is there a new update for this? It stopped working yesterday, I only have Shrimrod's lighting mod so I don't know what's causing it not to work.

Was there a new patch yesterday or did you install anything? If so, check that script mods are still enabled.

Ah, script mods. My game's setting got set back to default after I had to re-install Origin. Sorry, it's working perfectly >.<

I got a problem, I added some commands to the .py file (sims.add_buff e_buff_<inspired, happy, energized, flirty, focused>). But when I go into the game and enter "cow" or "buff" or "cowplant" (Which I set the shortcuts to) it just says that the command is invalid. The thing is, manually typing it in works fine and yes, all the other shortcuts that have been added by default work without a problem.

Also, the sims.add_buff are all written separately ex. sims.add_buff e_buff_Inspired *next row* sims.add_buff e_buff_Focused etc.

I was just wondering if you MIGHT know what is the problem, is there some sort of special way to do this or what? does the def pb_<name> have to be set to something certain for the sims.add_buff to work?

EDIT: This is how the code looks
@sims4.commands.Command('cow', 'cowplant', 'buff', command_type=sims4.commands.CommandType.Live)
def pb_sims(_connection=None):
command = '|testingcheats on'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = 'sims.add_buff e_buff_Inspired'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = 'sims.add_buff e_buff_Happy'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = 'sims.add_buff e_buff_Focused'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = 'sims.add_buff e_buff_Energized'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = 'sims.add_buff e_buff_Flirty'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)

Please, excuse me if it looks like shit or I've fucked something masterfully up, but I'm VERY new to this kind of stuff.

EDIT2: I fixed it by doing the following:

@sims4.commands.Command('cow', 'cowplant', 'buff', command_type=sims4.commands.CommandType.Live)
def pb_sims(_connection=None):
command = '|testingcheats on'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = '|sims.add_buff e_buff_Inspired'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = '|sims.add_buff e_buff_Happy'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = '|sims.add_buff e_buff_Focused'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = '|sims.add_buff e_buff_Energized'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)
command = '|sims.add_buff e_buff_Flirty'
sims4.commands.client_cheat(command, _connection)

I added '|' at the beginning of the sims.add_buff command! Sorry for bothering.

How would I add a command shortcut for something that requires you input a number as well such as the cheat 'sims.give_satisfaction_points {#}'? I mostly do html and css not much for the logic based programming languages XD.

Edit: rather than adding a new post with this I'll add it to the bottom...

For things like 'modifyrelationship {yoursimID} {targetsimID} 50 {relationshipBit}' and 'relationship.add_bit {yoursimID} {targetsimID} {relationshipBit}' how would I do that also?

anyone manage to add the enablefreebuild to the shortcuts? could someone post the code!

very cool and helpful... thanx

Thanks, PB, you're the man.

thank you :3

I have placed the zipped folder in my mods folder but in game none of the shortcuts will work :/ script mods are enabled and im using the most recent version of the game. any suggetions?

thanks heaps

did you work this out as i did the same and cant get it to work this is the first time i added a mod to the sims 4

the game sees the mod but it doesn't work. i don't know why not? it is to bad. I have tried but nothing happens.

Which exact command do you mean by "it"?

well all commands don't work. not even the list wich should show the shortcuts.

Do you have script mods enabled? Can you show a screenshot of how exactly the game "sees the mod"?
