FFS Lot Debugger options
The FFS Lot Debugger (AKA The "Batbox") is a debugging object created by J. M. Pescado. It can be downloaded here. The debugger was designed to fix several in-game issues as well as provide many methods of fixing or reducing corruption, as well as the correct way to 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.
Nuke...
This category contains options for removing (or nuking) objects, such as game controllers (which control the outcome of events and scenarios) or for tokens. Use these options with caution as they can cause corruption if improperly used.
Fix...
This category contains several bug fixes to many in-game bugs, glitches, and issues. The majority of these options will not appear until the debugger detects that the glitch may be present.
Wants...
This category contains simple fixes for issues regarding Wants and Fears. They can also be used as a "cheaty" way to get a Sim a full aspiration bar.
Make Me...
This category changes your Sim in various different ways, namely their astrological signs, life state, and playability.
Force Errors...
This category provides options to automatically force an error on objects on the lot, either all or some. Do not use this option with BoolProp testingcheatsenabled enabled! Normally the game automatically selects the "Reset" option when an object error dialog pops up. With testingcheatsenabled turned on, it will prompt the player for every single error that it encounters. Using these options with the cheat enabled will result in hundreds of error dialogs appearing.
Info...
Reports on information about the selected Sim.
Memory...
Contains options for managing the memories and gossip of Sims.
Smite...
Not really a debugging option. "Smiting" a Sim will send a bolt of lightning to zap them. Their comfort and hygiene motives will drop to -100 and their clothes will be charred. If they are a visitor they will automatically leave. Only teenagers and older can be smited, and they must be outdoors for the option to appear. Useful for getting rid of unwanted visitors, or showing the potential trash can kicker who's boss.
Weather...
Not debugging options either. These provide some options for controlling the weather, though none as useful or descriptive as the Weather-controlling machine.
Walk to Lot...
Option only appears if Bon Voyage or later is installed. Allows a Sim to walk to another lot. It functions the same as the option that appears when clicking on the selected Sim. Interestingly it appears for children as well, though I have not tested this.
