Allow object rotation (*) - boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true
(*) Use the [Comma] or [Period] keys to rotate the object. Some large (for example, multi-tile) objects
may not visually appear correct at 45 degree angles. This should not be used on windows or doors, as they
will already snap to diagonal walls. There is no guarantee that Sims can interact with all objects that
are at this orientation, but most should work. Use this with the boolProp snapObjectsToGrid code.
Debug mode:
-----------
When in the "Create A Family" screen create an adult female, and for her name type
Enter Fitrs N. A popup will appear on the top right stating "Create-a-sim is now in
Debugging Mode". Enter it without assigning your Sim a last name. This gives you new
clothing options, you can have your sims body be
invisible, assign Fig Leaf Clothing, and use many other hidden secrets.
Better business:
----------------
To get a bit of an edge over your competition, make sure to impress the Reporters whenever
they come around to your shop. If you manage to raise their customer loyalty enough, they
will write you a good review in the local papers. This boosts customer inflow and willingness
to buy. Just watch for visitors taking copious notes.
Saving leftovers:
-----------------
To keep leftovers from spoiling, buy a food display case. When your Sim is finished eating
his food, and there is still food remaining on the plate, go into buy mode. Pick up the plate
and put it in the display case. The food will never go bad and you can pick it up in buy mode
and put it on a counter, table, etc. for your Sim to eat more of it.
Twins:
------
To add some twins to your family, the medical powers of Cheesecake might be for you.
Have a slice before you "Try For Baby" and you may be surprised with the results.
Sim lives forever:
------------------
Build a servo after getting the Gold Badge in Robots. Then, kill the Sims you started with.
The only person remaining will be the robot, and you can do everything that you could do with
a Sim normally, even buying businesses and operating them.
Reset Sim or object:
--------------------
If your Sim or object is not working with anything, try doing this. It will reset what they
are doing with no harm done. First, enable the boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true code Shift
click on the Sim or object that is not working. Keep selecting the "More..." option until
you find the "Force Error" selection. A box will appear. Select"Reset". This will cancel
