The '''Allmenus''' |
The '''Allmenus cheat''' is a hidden cheat that will unlock all possible interactions of a Sim or object regardless of the current conditions. It allows the player to perform 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 only be done as autonomous reactions. Some examples of the cheat in action are shown in the picture above. |
||
All |
All interactions will be available in the pie menu when clicking on 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. The allmenus cheat is primarily used for storytelling purposes, although it can also be used as a "cheaty" way to play the game. |

The allmenus cheat is locked and hidden by default. The only way to enable it is to edit a few core game files. This procedure is easy and quick, but should be avoided by users who are not familiar or comfortable with tweaking the game files, as a mistake could render the game unplayable. This cheat is also not recommended for players who are not familiar with [[testingcheatsenabled]]. |

The Allmenus cheat is a hidden cheat that will unlock all possible interactions of a Sim or object regardless of the current conditions. It allows the player to perform 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 only be done as autonomous reactions. Some examples of the cheat in action are shown in the picture above.
