adjust your Skill and Career levels. Much more can be done with testingcheats and
cheats that were not officially released by Maxis. Here's everything you need to know to
cheat in The Sims 4. Look to the bottom of the list for expansion-specific information (at
the moment only Get to Work). We're also updated with more official cheats from EA,
including MoveObjects!
Open the Cheat Console by pressing Control + Shift + C. From there,
you can type commands. Press enter to activate the cheat, then
press control + shift + c again to close the cheat console. Some of
these may require testingcheats on, so just do that anyway. For
many cheats, you must also use testingcheats on or they won't
work!

into labor. You can also cheat to get twins, triplets, quadruplets, or
more! Find this near the end of the Pregnancy Guide.
Cheats to Make a Sim a Ghost
Head to the Ghosts guide for Cheats to turn a Sim into a ghost of
any kind, based on the death type. You can also skip Ambrosia or
the Book of Life and make a Sim who's died back into a normal Sim
by removing this ghost trait once they've been added back to your
family.
TESTING CHEATS
Testing Cheats
To enable Testing Cheats, type testingcheats on. To disable them,
type testingcheats off. The console will say, "Cheats Enabled". If it
does not, you can try other options: testingcheats 1, testingcheats
true, and testingcheats yes all work to enable the cheats. You must
do this every time you load an area until a bug is fixed. Here are the
things you can do with testingcheats - note that this command is
also necessary for the extra cheats further down.
Shift-Click the Mailbox to access the ability to stop need decay for
your current household or the entire neighborhood (effectively
make everyone happy). Disable Need Decay will make needs stop
falling; re-enabling them is as simple as selecting Enable Need
Decay. Make Happy will then fill needs to the maximum. You can do
this on an individual Sim level by Shift-Clicking Your Sims. This will
let you select to make only that Sim's needs static or make them
happy by filling all needs. You are also able to completely redesign a
Sim by shift-clicking them and selecting Modify in CAS. This takes
you to Create-A-Sim where you can make the Sim look however you
want, but not change their gender or traits.
To fully edit a Sim in Create-a-Sim, type cas.fulleditmode with
Testing Cheats On. This will let you change the gender, traits,
everything, and is much more powerful than the scaled down
version you get without typing this cheat. Thanks Pokeh321 for
giving me this information.
Shift-Clicking NPC Sims At the moment, this one seems to have
disappeared. When it's working, it will allow you to add them to
your household or reset them if they get stuck. You should also be
able to enable/disable need decay and make them happy if you so
choose - good if your Sim's date has to leave due to being tired! You
can also Edit them in CAS if you like.
Shift-Clicking the Ground will allow you to Teleport anywhere you
could walk in the neighborhood. Shift-Clicking Objects allows you to
reset them, should something get stuck or broken.
Shift-Clicking Objects, for those that can get dirty, allows you to
either make them dirty or clean - all objectcs can be reset, as well.
look into The Sims 4's source code and find all the developer cheats,
I am listing the cheats that help with Sims 4's Skills, Careers, and
other common things here. You can find a full list of cheats
TwistedMexi has discovered here. The Wiki is being updated with
newly discovered cheats, so you might find something that helps
you a lot there.
Testingcheats on should be enabled, as some cheats will not work
without it. Skill/Career cheats affect the selected Sim.
Money X - Type Money 50000 or 1000000, whatever you like, and
your family will have that amount exactly. This can be used to
subtract funds, because it sets the money to whatever amount you
specify.
Satisfaction/Aspiration Cheats - Type
aspirations.complete_current_milestone and you will get all the
satisfaction from completing that milestone and move on to the
next, one stage closer to the special trait you get for completing the
aspiration. You can do this repeatedly until you have every Reward
trait and gobs of satisfaction. It's listed above but bears repeating
here: sims.give_satisfaction_points gives the selected Sim an
amount of satisfaction equal to what you enter.
sims.give_satisfaction_points 50000 would give you 50k.
Infinite Consumables - One-time use potions can be bought with
satisfaction. You may also milk Cow Plants that have killed Sims to
get a potion that increases a Sim's lifespan. You can make these
the skills in Sims 4, which you can cheat to max. Beside each,
there's a link to the associated Skill Guide so that you can learn how
to use it!
To max all cheats quickly, copy stats.set_skill_level major_ and paste
it into your command console in-game. Finish the command with the
skill, then the level. This doesn't work for fitness so you need to

cheats that I think players would use regularly. If you visit the wiki,
you can find cheats for adding Traits, boosting (or destroying)
relationships, aiding in Sim death, and even how to make a Sim
behave as a maid.
