The Sims 4 is a life simulation game where the player creates a character and controls their life, going through various personalities and seeing how the game plays out. Most of the challenges in the game are caused by the player, like trying to make a Sims family last for 10 generations.
Since its launch in 2014, the game has received a multitude of expansions that have lengthened its lifespan. They have included everything from career-related expansions to introducing cats and dogs.

With the sheer amount of content and things to donot to mention challengesThe Sims 4 is not a stranger to cheating. But the game doesnt frown on this. In fact, it allows players to cheat their way to wealth, popularity, immortality, love, and more. After a regular playthrough, these cheats help to give the game a measure of replayabilityother than the expansion packs, of course. So, weve taken a look at the 10 most useful cheats in the game.
Like in real life, money in The Sims 4 is something players need to manage. At the start of the game, in particular, most of the available money is needed for basic things like paying the bills and buying groceries. And in some cases, the Sims might hardly have enough money left over to buy luxuries.

For players who want their Sims to live large from the get-go, there are plenty of accommodating cheat codes. They include kaching to get 1,000 simoleons, motherlode to get 50,000 simoleons, and household.autopay_bills [true/false] to turn household bills off or on.
The Sims 4 has designated areas for players to build objects. However, there are still a number of areas that are inaccessible to the player. They might be locked lots or somewhere else. For players who want to build structures anywhere they see, these locked areas might be an inconvenience. So, the game accommodates them by allowing them to enter a cheat code or two and they can gain access to these areas.
The cheats include modebb.moveobjects which lets players put objects wherever they want; bb.enablefreebuild which lets players build anywhere they see; and bb.showhiddenobjects, which lets players buy hidden objects.
Not every Sim is sociable and finds it easy to make friends. In fact, some Sims find it as hard to socialize as some of us might have in real life. This might be intentional from the player, but if its not, theres an easy way to overcome this social awkwardness.

The player can simply enter the relationship.introduce_sim_to_all_others cheat code. This will instantly introduce their Sim to all of their neighbors, breaking the ice between them. Another friendship cheat is relationships.create_friends_for_sim. This one spawns a new character who is already friends with the players Sim.
Similar to friendship, romance options in The Sims 4 are not straightforward, and not every player is successful in finding a spouse for their Sim. To help out their sim, they can just use a few cheat codes. One of the best cheats is LTR_Romance_Main. This allows their Sim to have a relationship with another one. Another cheat that players can try is modifyrelationship 'entire Sim name 1' 'entire Sim name 2' 100 ltr_romance_main. This one targets two specific Sims, and it turns the romance level between them to 100% positive.
A players Sim might be in love, in a relationship, or even married. However, they could be taking some time to make a baby. Fortunately, in the world of the Sims, this is hardly a problem. The player can simply enter a series of cheat codes that make a simor even a Ghostpregnant, and in various stages of pregnancy. For instance, sims.add_buff buff_pregnancy_trimester1 makes a Sim or a Ghost pregnant and in their first trimester. However, if a player wants to see a baby right now, sims.add_buff buff_pregnancy_inlabor makes a Ghost or Sim pregnant at term.
There are numerous ways in which a players Sim might die, and some of them are sudden and unexpected. If the player is invested in a certain Sim but they pass away, this doesnt have to remain the case. They can revive their Sim with a simple cheat code. Death.toggle [true/false] is a cheat code that prevents ones Sim from dying throughout their playthrough.

But the player can also have some fun with their Sim. For instance, one can turn their Sim into a ghost for a brief period4 in-game hours. The cheat code for this is sims.add_buff Ghostly.
Death is a constant occurrence in The Sims 4, but with the above revival cheats, it doesnt necessarily have to happen. On the flip side, however, the player might wish for the demise of their Sim. And they might be looking for a creative way to die. The game caters even to these players.
The game has a series of cheats that creatively kill ones Sim, like sims.add_buff buff_death_electrocution_warning, which causes a Sim to die while repairing an electrical item. Another creative cheat is sims.add_buff buff_mortified, which causes a Sim to die from embarrassment in a mere five hours.
Sims typically have needs and wants. However, they cannot achieve all their motives at the same time. In fact, some Sims might never fully get all their motives. A simple workaround to this is the cheat code sims.fill_all_commodities. This fills all of their motives. Other cheats worth considering are fillmotive motive_hunger, fillmotive motive_fun, fillmotive motive_energy and fillmotive motive_hygiene, all of which fill specific motives like hunger, fun, energy and hygiene respectively.

To complete the aspirational goal of a Sim, one can also use aspirations.complete_current_milestone. And, for more control over the level of satisfaction their Sim has, the player can decide on the satisfaction points to give them through sims.give_satisfaction_points X.
Not every cheat code is meant to give the Sim an unfair advantage. In fact, some cheat codes are quite helpful if the Sim is stuck somewhere. One such cheat code is resetsim [SimFirstName] [SimLastName]. Another one is Reset Stuck Sim. When a Sim is stuck, both of these cheat codes send them to a location they are able to move freely.

Other cheats include Dirty Object, which makes an object clean; Object, which resets an object; Ground, which teleports the players Sim to a certain location; and Mailbox, which resets the mailbox.
Not every item is visible to the player, and especially not early on in the game. Some players dont mind this because they want a sense of accomplishment as they slowly unlock things in the game. But if its a replay, others might not be so patient. Thats where the Debug Cheats come in.
When TestingCheats is enabled, these are codes that show nearly every object available in the game, whether or not they are functional. For instance, the player might unlock non-functional objects like background houses and undrivable cars. They can also unlock functional objects like public toilets.
