Keep in mind that in The Sims 4, sims can have up to three traits at a time. If you try to add a fourth trait to a sim using the "sims.add_trait" cheat, the game will prompt you to choose which trait you want to remove in order to make room for the new trait. Alternatively, you can use the "sims.remove_trait" cheat below to remove one of the sim's existing traits before adding a new one.
In The Sims 4, there are certain traits that are considered "hidden" and cannot be directly added or removed using the "sims.add_trait" and "sims.remove_trait" cheat codes. These hidden traits are typically associated with certain gameplay mechanics or events, and cannot be directly modified by players.
For example, sims who have the "Pregnant" hidden trait will be unable to have their pregnancy terminated using the "sims.remove_trait Pregnant" cheat. Similarly, sims who are in a "Ghost" state (i.e. they have died in-game) will have the "Ghost" hidden trait, which cannot be removed using the cheat code.
It's worth noting that some hidden traits can be modified or removed using other cheat codes or gameplay actions. For example, sims who are in the "Ghost" state can be returned to life using the "sims.spawnsimple" cheat, or by using the "Resurrect" interaction in the "Death" mod in the "Get to Work" expansion pack.
sims.remove_trait [trait]
This cheat will remove a specified trait from the selected sim. Replace "trait" with the desired trait to remove: Good Manners, Evil, Mean, Hot-Headed, Party Animal, Lazy, Kleptomaniac, Creative, Genius, Glutton, Jealous, Neurotic, Slob, Snob, Social Butterfly, Technophobe, Uncontrolled Eater, Vegetarian, Computer Whiz, Couch Potato, Coward, Dance Machine, Daredevil, Friendly, Grumpy, Good Sense of Humor, Handy, Hates Children, Hates the Outdoors, Inappropriate, Insane, Loner, Lucky, Mooch, Neat, Noncommittal, Outgoing, Perfectionist, Schmoozer, Self-Assured or Self-Absorbed.

BuyDebug Cheats
Press "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "C" on your keyboard to open the cheat console as usual.
Enter the "bb.showhiddenobjects" cheat and press "Enter". This will unlock the "buydebug" category in the build mode and buy mode menus, which contains a variety of hidden objects and items that are normally not available for purchase.
If you want, you can also use the "bb.enablefreebuild" cheat and press "Enter". This will remove the cost of all items in the "buydebug" category, allowing you to purchase them for free.
Alternatively, enter the "bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement" cheat and press "Enter". This will unlock all items in the "buydebug" category, even if you have not met the requirements to unlock them through normal gameplay.
Open the build mode or buy mode menu and navigate to the "buydebug" category to access and purchase the hidden objects and items.
Keep in mind that using the "buydebug" cheat may cause issues with your game, so it's a good idea to use it with caution. You may also want to consider using the "bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement" cheat sparingly, as it can potentially unbalance the gameplay experience. ð
Skill Cheats
As usual, press "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "C" on your keyboard to open the cheat console.
Enter the "testingcheatsenabled true" cheat and press "Enter". This will activate testing cheats mode, which allows you to use certain cheats that are normally not available in the game.
Select the sim whose skills you want to modify by clicking on them or using the "sims.get_sim_id_by_name [sim name]" cheat to target a specific sim.
Use the "stats.set_skill_level [skill] [level]" cheat to set the selected sim's skill level to a specific value. Replace "skill" with the name of the skill you want to modify (Athletic, Charisma, Cooking, Dancing, Fishing, Gardening, Gourmet Cooking, Guitar, Handiness, Logic, Painting, Piano, Programming, Singing or Writing) and "level" with the desired skill level (0 to 10).
Use the "stats.add_xp [skill] [amount]" cheat to add a specified amount of experience points to the selected sim's skill. Replace "skill" with the name of the skill you want to modify (Athletic, Charisma, Cooking, Dancing, Fishing, Gardening, Gourmet Cooking, Guitar, Handiness, Logic, Painting, Piano, Programming, Singing or Writing) and "amount" with the number of experience points to add (e.g. "1000").
Here are some examples of how to use these cheats:
To set a sim's Gardening skill to level 10, you would enter "stats.set_skill_level Gardening 10" into the cheat console.
To add 1000 experience points to a sim's Gardening skill, you would enter "stats.add_xp Gardening 1000" into the cheat console.
Sims Spawn Object Cheats
Press "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "C" on your keyboard to open the cheat console.
Enter the "testingcheatsenabled true" cheat and press "Enter". This will activate testing cheats mode, which allows you to use certain cheats that are normally not available in the game.
Use the "sims.spawn [object]" cheat to spawn a specific object in the world. Replace [object] with the desired object's name or ID.
Examples of how to use this cheat:
To spawn a telephone podium, you would enter "sims.spawn telephone_podium" into the cheat console.
To spawn a small fish tank, you would enter "sims.spawn smallfishtank" into the cheat console.
Keep in mind that not all objects are available for spawning using this cheat. You can find a list of available object names and IDs by searching online or by using the "sims.get_all_objects" cheat, which will display a list of all objects in the game.
