Thank you, Lynire! I wanted to make something like this myself, but I'm still learning to mod this game. This will come in handy when I'm looking for partners for my Sim.

This is a really cool idea.
Is it possible to also display more specific detail about a sim? For example, their favorite food.

Do you think it would be possible to have it list CC a sim is wearing (or is that something this mod does?) Very cool!

Assuming the creator of whichever piece of CC the sim is wearing used the recommended way of creating its ID number, it should already do so, after a fashion. In the list of outfits, the item IDs that are relatively small (as in, 6 digits or less) are official content, while the very large item IDs are CC.

No easy way to find which is the CC used based just on the number, though you do get to see which outfit uses it, and where.

Would you be able to make it tell what a sim is sick with?

Is there a way to tell how many days old a sims is from the day of its creation? This information would be handy for people that play with aging off? Not necessarily the days of their sim stages, but from the day it was put in game. How many days old is it in total? In other games i've kept the same sims alive for years.

this is pretty great, I have some invisible CC clothing I've been trying to hunt down. this could be useful in finding that in my massive CC folder.

Thanks for the mod! Quick question: would it be possible to dump the output into a text file? Other info that would be nice: gender preference, favorite food/drink/other.

I've looked for ways of accessing things people have asked for, like current illness, favorite food, and how old a sim is in terms of when it was created. The only success I've had with any of those was adding the sim's age in days, but that is not days from when it was created since the game only tracks sims age in days the game has been active; days people don't play the game aren't counted. I'm under the impression it would be a security issue for mods to be able to write files on people's computers, so I doubt mods can do that, even though I thought it would be nice to have log files myself.

Thanks very much. I'm curious about the traits shown that are marked as Hidden, like BeenKissed etc. Is there a way to set those for a sim?

The only way I know to set them is to perform the actions that cause those traits. I haven't tried to find another way.

Whenever I use this, I only see one window of information, not several like pictured.

The picture is pieced together in order to show all the list. The Sims 4 does not have a feature that causes the console output to look like that. So I took screen shots at different scrolled positions of the console output to make the picture.

To see all the output, you need to scroll your console output. If you have a mouse wheel, you can use that. If you have a touch pad, some of them can be configured to let you scroll by using a two finger drag.

I used this on one of my sims that has 30+ traits and the list got stuck in the UI. No keyboard command or mouse scroll would get rid of it. I had to ctrl alt delete out of the game and lost hours of gameplay.

This works with latest patch, right?

Would you add the info about sim gender information? It can get confusing with the new option Maxis gave for feminine males and stuff like that.

I was wondering if this still works with Version: 1.24.102.1020

I need help understanding your mod.
What do these mean by: "Age Progress in Days", "Time Alive in Days"
Does "Time Alive in Days", is what actual how old is that sim is?

I pull the sim information right out of the "sim_info" structure used in the game for sim information. It doesn't come with explanations. But I think "Age Progress in Days" means how many sim days the sim has progressed since their last age-up event (such as since becoming an adult) and "Time Alive in Days" is how many sim days the sim has been alive, or existed since ghost sims aren't alive. By sim days, I mean the time required in-game for a sim to progress through a day, not real-world days.
