The '''Allmenus cheat''' cheat is a hidden cheat that canwill unlock all possible interactions of a [[Sim]] or an object regardless of anythe current conditions. ThisIt cheatallows enablesthe player to useperform interactions that are normally unavailable through normal means, interactions that are normally hidden under certain conditions (e.g. The "Hug" interaction being unavailable on a Sim that has a poor relationship with the initiator), or interactions that can normallyonly be done as an autonomous reactionreactions. Some examples of the cheat in action are shown onin the picture belowabove.
 
All these interactions will be available in the pie menusmenu when clicking correspondingon their respective objects, and all means of transport (e.g. Run Here, Skip Here) will be available when clicking on the ground. Additionally, all Sim-to-Sim interactions are available as well regardless of relationship. ThisThe allmenus cheat is veryprimarily usefulused for storytelling purposes, although it can also be used as a "cheaty" way to play the game.

==Other Cheats==
#Open the '''GlobalProps.xml''' file in NotePad, EditPad Lite, or your favorite raw text editor. ''Back up the file first by making a copy of it on your Desktop!''
With the cheat enabled, there are also other cheats that you can use to expand storytelling cheat abilities.
#[[File:GlobalProps Allmenus.png|thumb|right|200px]] Insert <code><nowiki><AnyBoolean key="testingCheatsEnabled" type="0xcba908e1">true</AnyBoolean></nowiki></code> between the lines with <code>"allowCustomContent"</code> and <code>"animationLOD"</code>.

Two other cheats are also unlocked when you enable the allmenus cheat.
The outcome when choosing "Decline" for Leap into Arms interaction.
*'''Money [amount | +amount | -amount]''' - Allows you to either directly specify the exact amount of money you want the currently played household to have, or specify an integer value to add or subtract the desired number of funds. It is easier to use than the ''familyFunds'' cheat in that a household name does not need to be specified; however, this cheat will not work in the neighborhood view.
** Examples:
*** <code>Money 500</code> - Changes the amount of money the household has to §500.
*** <code>Money +500</code> - Adds §500 to the total number of funds.
*** <code>Money -500</code> - Deducts §500 from the total number of funds.
*'''DebugSocial [on/off]''' - If this cheat is enabled, the player will be prompted for the outcome of social interactions. For example, if a Sim initiates the "Hug" interaction on another Sim, the player will be asked whether or not the interaction should succeed or fail. If the player chooses "Accept", the interaction will be successful regardless of the Sims' moods and relationships, and if the player chooses "Decline", the interaction will always fail.
