• “Aspirations.complete_current_milestone”–Completes current aspiration challenge and awards points (This one owns)

INFINITE CONSUMABLE ITEMS

• “objects.consumables_infinite_toggle” –Toggles the use of unlimited consumable items such as plates of food and aspiration rewards potions

Note: This cheat must be activated BEFORE you spawn/create/purchase the item. When using aspiration potions, the sim will continue to sip from the cup forever. In the case of eating plates of food, the sim will continue to eat the same plate of food forever. THIS CHEAT DOES NOT WORK WITH UPGRADE PARTS.

Maid: Enables an NPC to come to the lot and clean

Code:
soak.enable_soak_maid_situation (execute this cheat first)

soak.create_soak_party_situation (execute this cheat after)

Make your sim act like a maid!
They’ll behave normally, do everything you tell them to as soon as you tell them, and do whatever they want when you aren’t directing them. The difference? The second there’s a puddle, a dirty plate, or trash to be taken out, they’ll stop their own actions and go fix it.

Turn Maid Behavior on:
sims.add_buff buff_Role_ServiceNPC_Maid

Turn Maid Behavior off:
sims.remove_buff buff_Role_ServiceNPC_Maid
