The [[FFS Lot Debugger]] (AKA The "Batbox") is a debugging object created by [[J. M. Pescado]]. It can be downloaded [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,72.0.html here]. The debugger was designed to fix several in-game issues as well as provide many methods of fixing or reducing [[Game guide:Avoiding corruption|corruption]], as well as the correct way to [[Game guide:How to delete a Sim correctly|delete Sims]]. The options, however, can confuse newbies, and not all of them are described in the lack of documentation. This article attempts to identify all the options provided by the debugger, and a short description of what they do.
==FFS Lot Debugger options==
Line 7:
===Nuke...===
This category contains options for removing (
'''Note''': Not all of these options appear when there is an issue. You should use these options only when you think there's clearly an issue with the lot and you suspect some of these to be the culprit.
Line 15:
====Stuck Airplanes====
When a Sim plays with a paper airplane, the game reserves a few tiles for the Sim to play freely. Normally, when the interaction ends or is cancelled, the game will relinquish the reserved tiles and make them vacant again. Sometimes though, the game will fail to unreserve the tiles, leading to "stuck invisible tiles"
====Stuck Poobags====
Line 47:
====Junk Pregnancy Controllers====
A bug exists in the [[The Sims 2: Pets|''Pets'']] expansion where pet pregnancy controllers will not remove themselves after the pregnancy is conceived, resulting in a mass build-up of unused controllers. If this is left unchecked, the lot could potentially become unplayable. This option will delete the controllers.
'''Note''': [
====Stuck SFX====
Line 67:
====Sim Schedulers====
Will cancel any visitors that are about to spawn, and terminates the contracts of any hired NPCs. Also prevents the school bus from showing up for kids and teens — reloading the lot fixes this.<ref>
====Lost Fishing Spots====
Line 82:
====Broken Grades====
Bug fix: will restore child/teen grade to above D.
====Bring Out Your Dead====
====Werewolf Hairiness====
Line 96:
====Work State====
This removes the perma-penalty bit for being late for work (being late is worse than not going at all!), and sets the "Doesn't Need To Go To Work" bit. This is used when the Sim gets reset following a patch or a complex mod being installed and isn't at work anymore as a result, which will cause their job performance to take a dangerous hit at the time they were supposed to come home.<ref>http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php
'''Note''': Cyjon's [http://cyjon.net/node/436 Less Late Penalty] reduces the incredibly severe penalties Sims get for being late at work.
Line 116:
====Rerandomize Sim Generator====
This option attempts to fix the [http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Pregnancy#Rolling_the_Pacifier_and_Firstborn_Syndrome first-born effect], in which Sims born in-game are given identical personalities and appearances. This happens if a Sim is born, then the game is saved and exited, and in the next play session, another baby is born and has the
'''Note''': This option will quit your lot without saving, in order to avoid committing to the pile of NPCs it generates.<ref>http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,72.msg590592.html#msg590592</ref> Save before using this option.▼
'''Another note''': You may still experience the first-born effect if you use this option immediately after booting up the game, as the option will always create (and immediately delete) thirteen Sims,<ref>https://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?p=5094790#post5094790</ref> due to the Batbox itself using another randomizer in the game that has the same problem. The solution, therefore, is to use this option or go into CAS and roll the pacifier a random number of times yourself.<ref>https://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?p=5095122#post5095122</ref> This should only concern you if you are paranoid of siblings looking and acting identical to each other and want a truly diverse and random selection.
▲'''Note''': This option will quit your lot without saving, in order to avoid committing to the pile of NPCs it generates. Save before using this option.

====Reset Bigfoot Controller====
Line 238 ⟶ 240:
====Show Plague Info====
Appears when a Sim is sick, and displays their illness statistics. A description of how disease works, which does not actually explain what the values mean since the values are only labeled with initials, is available [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=5200.0 here].
====Temperature Stats====
Line 280 ⟶ 282:
====Clear Trash====
Removes any useless, safe to remove memories.
'''Note''': You cannot individually choose which memories to delete - any memories that meet the criteria are removed via this option. See [

Attraction markers are simple triggers for relationship-related wants and fears.<ref>
====Clear Gossip...====
Line 310 ⟶ 312:
Not debugging options either. These provide some options for controlling the weather, though none as useful or descriptive as the [[Weather-controlling machine]].
This category has
'''Snow''': Choose from "Clear" or "MOAR!"
'''Temperature''': Choose from "Grip of Winter" (temperature at -100), "Heat From Hell" (temperature at +100), or "Normal".
'''Rain''': Only appears when it is currently raining. Choose from "Less!", "T&L!" (Thunder and lightning), and "MOAR!".

Line 360 ⟶ 364:
Has two options: "Sync To Current" and "Restore Original". "Sync To Current" changes the genetic personality (the underline) to the current personality the Sim has (the highlighted pills). "Restore Original" resets the Sim's personality back to its genetic personality.
